Measurement procedure for application of white light scanner in the automotive sector

Advanced optical metrology systems are continuously being developed to cope with the challenges arising from large-scale, high-quality production, especially in the automotive sector. Therefore, these measuring devices are relatively new and they are ruled by very general standards. The main goal of this work is to develop a specific procedure for a white light fringe projection optical measurement equipment from a general measurement system analysis procedure used in the automotive sector (MSA-4 Reference Manual) considering the recent international regulations for the verification of this type of equipments: Technical Recommendation VDI/VDE 2634 and ISO 10360-8: 2013. Only the tests applicable to the equipment used to validate the proposed procedure, a 3D white light structured scanner SIDIO Pro from Nub3d, were analyzed.
