PLYMOUTH, Mich., April 30, 2020 — Perceptron, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRCP), a leading global provider of 3D automated measurement solutions and coordinate measuring machines, today announced a premium global automotive manufacturer has expanded their demand for in-line AccuSite systems by adding two mainline stations.

In August of 2018, Perceptron announced an order for twenty-four absolute accurate in-line systems with AccuSite to measure closure panels. Those systems have entered production and due to their success, the customer has expanded their AccuSite footprint with two multi-robot configurations: increasing the overall throughput of the manufacturer’s process control plan. The mainline systems include a two-robot station to accurately measure battery trays for Electric Vehicles, and a four-robot body-in-white station to accurately measure the complete car body. Rick Van Valkenburg, Perceptron’s Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing, commented, “Our AccuSite solution has the scalability to track up to six robots with as many as ten Trackers, enabling measurement of all points on the assembly. These system orders represent our first repeat customer order for AccuSite and are a validation of the technology and the solution on the plant floor.”

The role of automated in-line measurement for process control, variation reduction, and defect containment has evolved to absolute accurate measurement. This transition increases the customers’ productivity by eliminating the need to use off-line CMMs and improves their response time from problem identification to resolution.

Van Valkenburg added, “The additional orders are a testament to Perceptron’s ability to achieve traceable absolute positional accuracy in real plant floor applications and speaks to the high level of support and customer service we provide after the initial sale.”

Perceptron Announces Order for AccuSite® in Robot Guidance Application

Optical Tracking Improves Productivity for Robotic Manufacturing

PLYMOUTH, Mich., January 9, 2020 — Perceptron, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRCP), a leading global provider of 3D automated metrology solutions and coordinate measuring machines, today announced receiving an order for nine AccuSite® optical tracking systems for precision robot guidance and metrology applications.

“Perceptron continues to innovate with our manufacturing partners by developing technology to maximize solution value. We have expanded our AccuSite technology beyond accurate in-line metrology to provide the greatest possible precision for robot guidance applications,” commented Rick Van Valkenburg, Vice President Global Sales and Marketing for Perceptron.

In robot guidance applications no part is perfect, and no process is perfect; therefore, there are two goals to achieve optimal part placement. Goal one is removing the variation introduced by these two factors. To achieve this, Helix sensors are installed around the assembly to measure key locating features and then send an offset to the robot to correctly place the part in the assembly. Goal two is removing the variation caused by any changes in the robot due to temperature and mechanical drift. An AccuSite Star is mounted on the robot’s end-of-arm tooling and the AccuSite Tracker captures its precise position. Based on this measurement, a secondary offset is calculated and sent to the robot ensuring precise placement.

Van Valkenburg added, “Perceptron provides the most flexible set of solutions in the industry allowing for the implementation of state-of-the-art applications like this one. In this project we are utilizing fixed and robot mounted sensors, absolute accurate optical tracking, and data sharing across systems to minimize sensor count and footprint, improve overall system performance, and reduce measurement cycle times.”

Perceptron Announces First Order for Multi-Robot AccuSite®

Absolute Accurate Solution for In-Line Metrology

PLYMOUTH, Mich., December 19, 2019 — Perceptron, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRCP), a leading global provider of 3D automated metrology solutions and coordinate measuring machines, today announced receiving their first order for a two-robot AccuSite® optical tracking solution for in-line metrology.

“The AccuSite architecture supports multiple Trackers allowing us to accurately track up to eight robots in a cell. All Trackers and robots are connected to each other, providing maximum flexibility in system design and layout. Measuring in-line is the most cost-effective solution for quality control. No manpower is needed to load parts or put them back into the process once measurement is complete. There is no need for dedicated CMM fixtures or CMM correlation since AccuSite provides traceable measurement directly in the manufacturing process,” commented Rick Van Valkenburg, Vice President Global Sales and Marketing for Perceptron.

Perceptron has combined over 35 years of metrology and manufacturing experience to create a truly absolute, no-compromise automated metrology solution that is designed for the plant floor. Paired with Perceptron’s Helix®evo sensors, the system can produce scan data or measure features like threaded holes, studs and edges with no targets, inserts, or sprays. AccuSite turns the robots into simple movers by eliminating all the robots’ mechanical drift and temperature influence from the measurement results, in real-time through a single interface.

Van Valkenburg added, “We have received our first order for a two-robot in-line AccuSite solution measuring battery carriers for a new electric vehicle. This project requires measurement of over 60 features measured within 70 seconds. The accuracy and measurement throughput requirements were only achievable with Perceptron’s multi-robot AccuSite solution.”
