Dent Inspect

Dent Inspect is a surface defect detection technology based on 3D scanning data, capable of accurately identifying and quantifying irregular defects such as protrusions and dents on the surface of workpieces. By utilizing the dent inspect function, it effectively enhances product quality control levels, promptly identifies potential defects, and provides data support for quality decision-making.

Function Description

You can import data, adjust effects, and complete detection through the following functions.

Scan Data

You can select the files to import (STL, PLY, OBJ).

Types

Supports two types of detection: dent defect and protrusions; after selecting the detection type, you can set the minimum detection value.

Color Bar

On the right color bar, you can click the input box with the left mouse button to enter values and adjust the value range. After adjusting the values, the color map in the 3D scene will update in real-time.

Settings

Dent

You can show or hide the dent inspection items.

Labels

You can hide or select the label display type in the 3D scene.

• Minimal labels: Only show the minimum dent depth or minimum protrusion height (D).
• Full labels: Show the minimum dent depth or minimum protrusion height (D), dent or protrusion length (L), dent or protrusion width (W), area (Area), and volume (Vol).

Zebra Line

Simulate the light reflection stripes on the model to allow for a quick and intuitive view of various defects.

Note

You can adjust the clarity and width of the reflection lines through the smooth and width parameters under this function, making the dents or protrusions more noticeable.

Operation Instructions

1. In the upper left corner of the interface, select the file to be detected for import.
2. On the left side of the interface, select the detection type as dent defect or protrusion and set the minimum detection value.

3. Move and rotate the model to view the defect from multiple angles.

   Operation	Description
   Press and hold the left mouse button	In non-selection mode, press and hold the left mouse button and move to rotate the model for viewing.
   Press and hold the mouse wheel	Press and hold the mouse wheel and move to pan the model for viewing.
   Press and hold the right mouse button	Press and hold the right mouse button to rotate the model for viewing.

   Note

   If the model's dents or protrusions are difficult to detect directly, you can enable the > Zebra Line function. This function will clarify the model's dents or protrusions for easier viewing.

4. Use the toolbar's tool or / tool to select the dent or protrusion; the software will automatically measure and display the dent or protrusion data at that location.

   Note

   If you need to re-inspect a certain dent or protrusion, you can select that area and click to clear that detection item.

   

5. After the detection is complete, click the Export CSV button at the bottom left of the interface to export the detection data.
