Accurex Measurement Launches LYNX2 to revolutionise Automated Visual Inspection for Large Assemblies

Accurex Measurement, a leading provider of precision measurement and inspection solutions in the USA, has announced the launch of the LYNX2 visual inspection system. LYNX2, named for its advanced capabilities and feline-like precision, aims to transform automated machine vision inspection for manufacturing aerostructures and other large assemblies.

The LYNX2 is a high-resolution camera with optical zoom and a digital projector that captures detailed images to detect manufacturing errors. It has an articulating field of vision, allowing it to inspect thousands of components on products up to 10 metres long. The system also provides real-time analysis of inspection data, enabling manufacturers to make immediate decisions and correct errors. Additionally, it includes Augmented Reality (AR) capabilities, superimposing computer-generated images on the real world to guide assembly operations and provide visual feedback on inspection results. This enhances overall production efficiency.

Designed with the operator in mind, LYNX2 features a unified sensor and lighting system and an intuitive user interface, making it easy for operators to set up, monitor, and manage the inspection process. Automatic inspection reports enhance the user experience and traceability, enabling efficient system usage.

Accurex Measurement is committed to innovation in the manufacturing sector, and LYNX2 exemplifies this dedication. With its advanced capabilities, LYNX2 is set to redefine automated visual inspection standards, enhancing quality control and productivity in manufacturing large, complex products. Manufacturers investing in LYNX2 can expect significant reductions in quality escapes and improvements in overall production efficiency. “We are excited to introduce LYNX2 to the market, bringing a new level of reliability and efficiency to automated visual inspection processes,” said Paul Joss, Director of Sales & Marketing at Accurex Measurement. “There has been increased scrutiny recently on quality assurance processes for manufacturers, particularly in aircraft manufacturing. With built-in Augmented Reality, LYNX2 offers two layers of quality assurance by guiding the assembly operation and inspecting to ensure that each step was performed correctly.” He continued, “This innovative LYNX2 solution reflects our dedication to empowering manufacturers with cutting-edge technologies to eliminate quality escapes and efficiently ensure the highest quality standards while optimising their production processes.”
