Case Study: Siempelkamp Giesserei achieves faster automated inspection of large castings with Carl Zeiss ATOS LRX

Siempelkamp Giesserei inspects 320-ton castings 3x faster with Carl Zeiss

Siempelkamp Giesserei, the world's largest hand-molding foundry, needed an innovative quality assurance solution for its massive castings, some weighing up to 320 tons. To ensure high product quality, minimize scrap, and support its digitalization strategy, the company turned to vendor Carl Zeiss and its ZEISS ATOS LRX 3D scanner for an automated inspection process.

Carl Zeiss implemented the world's largest non-contact robot measuring cell centered on the ATOS LRX scanner. This automated solution enabled fully automated inspections, increased scanning speed by three times compared to manual methods, and provided comprehensive full-field data for continuous digital quality control, allowing for precise and efficient analysis of even the largest cast parts.
