The clip on battery pack attaches onto the base of the handle and provides power for additional 4-6 hours.

The Desktop charger will recharge the battery in about 1.5 hours.

The VChange sensor system allows sensor heads to be quickly and easily changed without using any tools. The Vchange system can be retrofitted to existing MX+ handles and sensors. Sensor heads can be freely interchanged between different handles.

To swap the sensor head squeeze the orange release tabs on the Vchange collar and pull the sensor off the handle. Push the new sensor into place until the collar lock clicks. The sensor can be swapped without turning off the GapGun.

The GapGun Pro has an internal battery which can power the GapGun for 4 to 5 hours of normal use.

The battery can be recharged using the docking station or via the clip-on battery which can be used to extend the period of use by a further 4-6 hours.

V7.5

Some heads have a three position mask in front of the laser. Turning the laser cap changes the mask: Position I places a mask line in the centre of the laser line. This artificially divides the laser line into a left and right side. It can be used to measure features where it is difficult to identify the left and right sides of a feature.

Position II is the default position which allows the full width of the laser line to be used. Position III masks the laser on the right and left ends of the line presenting a shorter laser line on the feature.

The Docking Station connects the GapGun to the PC though an Ethernet connection.

It also powers the GapGun, recharges the internal battery and is a safe place to store the GapGun.

Standoffs are used in applications where the

parts being measured can’t possibly move. The

standoffs help stabilise the GapGun and position it correctly. The black V standoffs are for measuring gaps and the grey H standoffs are for sealant beads.

Protect the GapGun by always using the Head Jacket (above) and wrist loop.

Before each use: check lenses are clean, check for any damage and verify calibration.

If the GapGun is dropped, check it for damage and verify calibration.

The GapGun lenses need to be clean: Inspect the highlighted areas for dust, grease or fingerprints; clean them with the kit provided if required.

The GapGun Pro is designed for indoor use; keep the system and its accessories dry and clean. Do not use solvents on any surface.

Always verify calibration before use by measuring the Gauge Block or Pin Gauge supplied with your system. See the Checking Head Calibration section in this manual for more details on running the Head Check checkplan.

FOV15/40/80 To perform a calibration check successfully, place the gauge block on a flat, stable surface. Using the V-standoff, locate the tip in the gap to position the sensor at the correct distance from the block.

FOV7 To perform a calibration check successfully. Using the V-standoff, locate the pin into the V from the top of the standoff, taking care not to apply undue pressure to the pin.

NOTE: Failure to follow these steps may cause false calibration failures.

The GapGun must be held within ±15° of a perpendicular line from the feature to be measured. The most accurate measurements are made closest to the perpendicular.

Standoffs can be used to guarantee alignment.

Because the camera is set on a different axis from the laser, edges can obscure parts of the feature.

Switching the GapGun round will solve this problem.

The laser stripe should be placed at right angles to the feature. Use standoffs to guarantee alignment.

For best performance with surface finish or colour differences always use U series measurement heads—these have industry leading performance on challenging surfaces.

Always use M series measurement heads for measuring reflective finishes. When using U series light from the laser can be reflected indirectly off the object back to the camera and return false readings.

This guide demonstrates how to configure a GapGun Checkplan to measure three Gap/Flush features on the Hex Tool training artifact supplied with the GapGun.

The Square cut gap has square cut edges as found in many industrial or aerospace applications, such as panels on aircraft. This feature has embossed lettering which shows how the GapGun can ignore surface imperfections around the feature when measuring.

The Hex Tool training artifact provides a wealth of features to practice on. This guide uses three common features. The Rounded Gap consists of a gap and flush (step) that have rounded edges as found on many consumer items such as cars and white goods.

The Rounded, square gap has one side is rounded and the other square, as found for example in automotive ring gauges. One side of this feature is set at an angle, to show how the GapGun can cope with geometries that are challenging to measure manually.

The SPC3D PC application is used to configure Checkplans, collect measurements and configure Features. A. Context-sensitive command ribbon. B. Checkplan tree view. C. Tabbed Properties, Results and GapGuns windows. D. Tabbed Workspace, Checkplan and Live display.

The GapGun uses a Checkplan to describe what Features are to be measured and in what order. Features can be put into Groups so that related measurements can kept together.

The first step is to create a new Checkplan and give it a descriptive name ‘Hex’.

A Checkplan can have one or more Groups, for example grouping Features on one part of the object. A Group can be copied to create repeating sets of Features or mirrored to create a Group for the opposite side of the object.

Add a Group to the Checkplan and give it a descriptive name ‘Gaps’.

SPC3D is used to define the checkplan and configure the features that are to be measured. These are combined into a Works Order which is downloaded to the GapGun to tell the operator what to measure and where to measure each feature. The measured results are then returned to SPC3D to be stored and formatted for further processing.

Feature describes the measurement of a feature on a part. This can have multiple measurement values, for example Gap and Flush. Add three Features: Rounded - set the link to \Tools\GapFlush\PanelRad Square - set the link to \Tools\GapFlush\PanelGF RndSq - set the link to \Tools\GapFlush\CRV_SQR

Markers can be added to indicate which way to aim the GapGun. The triangle indicates the left side and the circle indicates the right, these symbols are also etched onto the sides of the GapGun head. The Plus, Cross and Done buttons can be used to manage user-defined markers.

A picture of the feature can be added so that the operator knows the precise location of the feature and how to orientate the GapGun.

Right-click the Feature name and click on “Define Instruction graphic…”

Select a graphic from the left hand panel or click on the Green Plus button to import a new picture. Delete

graphics using the Cross Button or click the ‘None’

button to remove the graphic from the Feature.

Place the GapGun onto the Docking Station.

The GapGun will show the GapGun locating the SPC3D host.

If Wi-Fi has been configured the GapGun will already be connected.

To download a Checkplan to the GapGun it must first be opened in SPC3D.

Select Open from the ribbon and select the required Checkplan file. These files can be freely copied, emailed or renamed.

On the GapGun the checkplan becomes a Works Order which tells the operator what to measure.

The Operator Guide describes how to download the Checkplan onto the GapGun and return the results.

 By default, a Works Order gives a list of five Jobs to perform. This allows you to make measurements on five

separate parts (or five times on the same part.) For each Job just pulling the trigger will take you through the menus in the right sequence.

 Pull the trigger to enter the selected Job.  Enter the serial number of the part to be measured in this Job.  There is only one group in our checkplan so select this Group.  Pull the trigger to measure each Feature using the following steps.

 The measurements must always be made in the same orientation so that the sign of the flush is the same.

When measuring as shown the flush will be negative, but when measured the other way round it will be positive.

 Take the measurement as described in the operator manual.  The GapGun will display the dimensions of the gap and flush measured. If the GapGun reports ERR11 then

the wrong tool is being used, ERR13 indicates that the GapGun is no being held stably enough to get good images.

.

The nominal value (and tolerances) can also be set from engineering drawings. Select the Feature, expand the tree then select Characteristics. In the Properties tab locate the Characteristics being measured and enter the nominal and tolerance values.

 Once all the measurements have been taken then use the Back button to get to the Save & exit menu.  If the GapGun is connected to the network the select Lock and Upload to return the results to SPC3D  Otherwise, Lock & exit prepares the results to be upload later when the GapGun has been connected to

SPC3D.

Once the nominals and tolerances have been set, the Results tab will show values which are in and out of tolerance as soon as the results are uploaded from the GapGun.

Now the Checkplan has the nominal and tolerance values set, the Checkplan is ready for use.

Select the Checkplan workspace and then save the Checkplan or right-click the Checkplan name and select Save.

16

To use the new Checkplan open it in SPC3D, place the GapGun onto the Docking Station and download it or connect to Wi-Fi and download it wirelessly.

Measure the Hex Tool against the nominals and tolerances defined, and upload the measured data to SPC3D.

17

Create a Checkplan to measure the radius on the rounded gap by experimenting with different tools to see what they do. Right click on one the rounded gap Feature and select Properties, then change the Link combo box to try different ways of measuring.

Use the techniques described to measure another object such as a car body, or an airframe.. The principles are the same.

23

Characteristic

A measurement to be made of an object, for example, gap, flush, radius, angle, depth, height, width, roughness, chamfer, burr, proud. A feature will typically have a number of characteristics measured.

Checkplan

A set of Groups which describe the list of features which need to be measured on an object.

Feature

A feature is a point on an object that is to be measured. It can have a number of measurements depending on what characteristics are to measured,

e.g. Gap and Flush

FOV7, FOV15, FOV40, FOV80

The GapGun can have a number of different heads to measure different sized features. The FOV, Field Of View defines the length of the feature to be scanned in millimetres.

Group

A set of related Features, for example the features to be measured on one side of an object. A second Group could be added for a similar object or mirrored to measure the other side of an object.

Object

The object is the target of the measurements. It may have multiple features that are to be measured.

e.g. The Hex Tool has 21 features that can be measured.

SPC3D

PC based application software to create Checkplans, to manage delivery of Works Orders to GapGuns, to retrieve measurements made and to customize Virtual Tools.

Standoffs

To improve reliability and repeatability, standoffs can be used to help the operator place the GapGun in the optimal position for accurate measurement. Customized standoffs can be constructed for particular user requirements.

Virtual Tool

The GapGun can measure a number of dimensions of a feature, for example, the gap between two panels and the flush height difference between the panels. The GapGun comes with a set of pre-defined Virtual Tools to measure a wide variety of features. They are organised into Tool families: Angle, Edge, GapFlush, Position, Radius, Rivet, Seal, Surface and Custom. These tools are described in the Tools Appendix.

Works Order

Overview

Third Dimension is a world leading developer and manufacturer of non-contact, precision profile measurement solutions.

Third Dimension has a long track record of supplying metrology equipment and services to the largest names in aerospace, automotive and energy sectors worldwide.

The GapGun is a laser gauge, profile measurement system that quickly and accurately quantifies local features such as gap and flush, step, weld and mismatch, radii, scratches, seals, dents, rivets and fasteners. It is a proven technology, used worldwide by most major automotive and aerospace OEMs.

The GapGun takes conventional laser scanning a step further by not only scanning a surface to record its shape, but also automatically analysing the information to pick out specific dimensions (gap, flush, angle, etc) and then comparing these against tolerance bands. The measured data is then recorded for statistical process control or traceability purposes.

Providing a fully auditable trail of every single product that is measured, GapGun removes risk by proving the quality of manufacture and in turn providing significant time and cost savings for our customers.

Operation in the 5600-5650 MHz band is not allowed in Canada. High-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.

This equipment complies with IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.

This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.

Son utilisation est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes :

 Cet appareil ne doit pas causer d’interférences et il doit accepter toutes interférences

reçues, y compris celles susceptibles d’avoir des effets indésirables sur son fonctionnement.

 Conformément aux réglementations d’Industry Canada, cet émetteur radio ne peut

fonctionner qu’à l’aide d’une antenne dont le type et le gain maximal (ou minimal) ont été approuvés pour cet émetteur par Industry Canada.

Pour réduire le risque d’interférences avec d’autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et

son gain de telle sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e) ne soit pas supérieure à celle requise pour obtenir une communication satisfaisante.

Le dispositif de fonctionnement dans la bande 5150-5250 MHz est réservé à une utilisation en intérieur pour réduire le risque d'interférences nuisibles à la co-canal systèmes mobiles par satellite, le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5470-5725 MHz doit se conformer à la pire limite, et le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans la bande 5725-5825 MHz doivent être conformes avec le pire limites spécifiées à point-à-ponctuelles et non point-à-point de fonctionnement selon qu'il convient.

Opération dans la bande 5600-5650 MHz n'est pas autorisée au Canada. Haute puissance radars sont désignés comme utilisateurs principaux (c.-àutilisateurs prioritaires) des bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850 MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer des interférences et / ou des dommages à dispositifs LAN-EL.

Cet équipement respecte les limites d’exposition aux rayonnements IC RSS-102 définies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Il doit être installé et utilisé en maintenant une distance minimum de 20cm entre le radiateur et votre corps.
