Abstract

For in-line measuring machines/inspection machines, there are increasing demands in measurement using non-contact sensing. Design and adjustment of the measuring system focused on the sensing section is crucial for guaranteeing accuracy.
Traditionally, we have been adjusting/managing the position/orientation relative to the workpiece being measured using a contact-type probe, however, in the non-contact sensing, not only the aforementioned adjustment and management, but also the matching with the material of a workpiece to be measured based on the fundamentals of sensor become important.
We have decided to employ the simulation software as a result of reaching the conclusion that the visualization based on the fundamentals of the sensor is necessary for the accuracy designing of a non-contact sensor.
In this presentation, we introduce our initiative in the visualization of magnetic flux and current densities of the eddy current displacement sensor using JMAG.
