Solution overview

Advanced optical metrology platform for measuring small cylindrical parts such as screws, bolts, electronic fasteners, and medical components. It uses telecentric imaging and sub-micron precision algorithms to analyze diameters, thread geometry, and concentricity without contact. Target users include manufacturers in aerospace, electronics, and medical industries seeking ultra-precise and traceable geometric control.

Key features

Sub-micron accuracy with optical and AI-assisted measurement. Complete 2D/3D geometry extraction, including thread pitch and coaxiality. Modular fixture system adaptable for industrial and medical components. Real-time results with automatic pass/fail analysis. Optional AI-based defect detection and statistical reporting.

Integration and adaptability in manufacturing environments

The system can operate as a stand-alone laboratory instrument or be integrated inline assembly lines. It may connect via standard protocols and supports automated part loading. Custom fixtures and software modules allow quick adaptation to different geometries, materials, and tolerance levels common in precision manufacturing.

Implementation support and training for manufacturers

Creon Scientia d.o.o. will provide full installation, calibration, and operator training. R&D collaboration will be available for custom optical design or algorithm development.

Sustainability, compliance and certifications in the EU

The system is currently under laboratory validation and will undergo CE conformity assessment before commercial deployment. It already incorporates measurement standards such as ISO 1502, ISO 965, and ISO 3506 for thread and fastener inspection, ensuring traceability and compatibility with industrial and medical quality systems.

Example of successful implementation of solution in manufacturing company.

The system is currently being produced and undergoing optical performance validation in Slovenia. Laboratory tests of the optical modules have shown high repeatability and sub-micron precision. Initial industrial validation will be conducted with precision aerospace fasteners, electronic screws, and medical components once the first production unit is completed.
