Smart and Connected Machines

Testing of advanced solutions for digital grinding, advanced forming, machining and multitasking, micromachining, digitising and connectivity, and other processes

The Smart and Connected Machines focus area brings together a series of technological assets for companies, enabling them to carry out trial, testing, development, demonstration and training activities on the most established types of machines and manufacturing processes in the Basque industrial sector.

This focus area therefore provides specialised assets (machines, test benches, verification and test equipment) for conventional machining processes, multifunctional machining, process hybridisation, grinding and finishing processes, micromachining and precision processes, forming and joining processes, as well as software assets for testing aspects related to connectivity, digitisation and advanced control strategies.

Development of a metrology software focused on pre-scanned items

Metrología Sariki

Use case

Metrología Sariki is a part of the Unceta Group and has more than 35 years of experience in the field of measurement and inspection in the industrial environment. Sariki distributes machines from different manufacturers and inspection technologies adapted to the requirements of the market. Moreover, the company carries out turnkey projects in which it offers an integral service ranging from design to maintenance and support of the installations in service. It also develops its own hardware and software, used to offer customised and accurate solutions to its clients.

Need:

Recently, the dimensional measurement industry has been moving towards non-contact inspection, in which a significant volume of information is obtained at very high speed. In this line, Sariki has created its own metrology software called SK/Inspect and aims to develop this innovative technology to be compatible with the scanners available on the market. With the collaboration of the Vicomtech technology centre and its high-performance geometric processing SDK, Geomlib, Sariki has been able to optimise the software algorithms and develop new algorithms that significantly reduce inspection time and allow the installation of the software in extremely high-speed manufacturing processes.
