摘要:
A real-time fastener measurement system includes an anvil (10) having a striking surface (16) that engages a fastener as it is upset. Three proximity sensors (20) are disposed at 120.degree. intervals around a striking surface of the anvil. A computer system (110) reads the electronic signals produced by the proximity sensors just after the fastener has been upset and converts the signals to digital values. The computer stores a piecewise linear function that has been predetermined for each sensor and uses the function to convert the digital values of the proximity sensor to fastener head height.

Method and system for marking a surface. A writing medium is positioned within a cavity defined in a body extending between a first end and a second end of a wand. The first end is coupleable to a robot. The second end is opposite the first end and has an opening defined therein in fluid communication with the cavity. The second end is positioned adjacent to the surface. A position of at least one of the writing medium and the second end is automatically maintained relative to the surface.

The system contains a purge chamber. A substantially optically transparent wall is formed along the purge chamber. A laser projector is mounted within the purge chamber. The laser projector is positioned to project a laser beam through the substantially optically transparent wall. The system may be used to project images onto objects to assist in manufacturing processes.

摘要:
A method of predicting the adhesion of a metal surface for painting or bonding comprising pressing an elastomer pad against the surface with a known force for a certain minimum time, measuring the force required to pull the pad away from the surface, and comparing that force with an empirically derived standard.
