Problem Statement Objective of the Project Scope and Key Assumptions

2 manufacturing industries are using power generated checking fixture which is combine with pneumatic devices and controlled through a program generated via MATLAB or visual basic program. It is usually to inspect the attribute data of product such as light brightness and sound. For example is a manufacturer of digital cameras. Nowadays, there are many research and experimental work that have been done in the quality inspection field but the most effective parameter still cannot define. Consequently, in this project study will analysis and doing experiment investigate of the application Faro Arm Laser Scanner in quality inspection field whether it is suitable to use in press part industries or not.

1.2 Problem Statement

Although many knew about the capability of a products are manufactured through a press machine. The problems that always occur are in quality inspection system where checking process of the product is needed in order to meet the specification and dimension that are required. Therefore, the application of Faro Arm Laser Scanner and checking fixture need to be identified in term of the problem in real time and capability limitation for both equipment, so that in the future the information from the experimental work can be further extended or to be used for analysis to validate the result.

1.3 Objective of the Project

Objectives are very important as guidelines to the aims of the project purpose. It based on the problem statement that occurs to the find the better solution of the problems. The objectives of this project study will be: i. To perform the comparison analysis in quality inspection system between checking fixture and Faro Arm Laser Scanner. 3 ii. To study the application of the Faro Arm Laser Scanner as a quality inspection tool for press part components.

1.4 Scope and Key Assumptions

Few scopes and guidelines are listed to ensure the project is conducted within its intended boundary. This is to ensure the project is heading to the right direction to achieve its intended objectives. The first scope of this project is to find out the various researches that related with project study. All the information and data collected will be approach in this project report. Secondly, the scope of this project is to do experiment process by using Faro Arm Laser Scanner and checking fixtures equipment. In this experiment process, need to know how to use and apply both of equipment in quality inspection system. Another scope for this project is to study and analyze scan measurement data, real time capabilities and the performances of Faro Arm Laser Scanner. Test or experiment is done to analyze the accuracy of the laser scanner where method of scanning, complexity of component and scanning condition are being verified. GEOMAGIC STUDIO and GEOMAGIC QUALIFY are used in manipulating and analyzed the digitized point. 4
