- Compact footprint (W: 1522, D: 1234, H: 2100) mm³ - Max. capacity balance: 1210 g - Total process cycle time: < 60 s - Readability: 1,.0 mg - Repeatability: 0,.8 mg - Linearity deviation: 2 mg - Real time process control - Intuitive HMI design - Automatic material and monitoring part handling system - Cleanroom class ISO 8 or higher The IMSTec weight measurement station is part of an overall concept for coating automation of orthopaedic implants. It represents a high end solution for weight determination prior and post part treatment. An integrated high precision balance provides repeatable weight measurements with a gauge capability better than 10%. For quality control the weighing system is monitored on a regular basis specified by a corresponding system recipe or on request via HMI. The automated part handling and monitoring process maximizes the mean time to assist. IMSTec’s fully automated weight determination system targets weighing applications in particular for medical devices such as orthopaedic implants. The key component of the weighing system is a high-precision balance. The balance is suitable for remote control in an automated system environment. For enhanced stability and accuracy the weighing system comprises means for vibration isolation. The vibration isolation consists of a base plate made of granite which is placed on 4 damping elements. For protection of the balance against surrounded air flow and additional environmental influences the weighing system is contained in a compartment. The load/unload of parts to/from the balance is accomplished by a robot system. An overload protection device avoids mechanical damage of the balance.
