Text Box: RoLSS Fixture (Rotational Linear Scanning System; Lumetrics Inc.) Text Box: Results: This fixture was very well received by the medical manufacturing community and allowed measurement of critical medical components which couldn’t be accurately measured if at all by previous methods. Text Box: Scope: Design a Fixture Product which will hold cylindrical objects and rotate them so that they may be scanned by single or multiple probes, ie. Tubing, Medical Balloons, Stents, Catheters. This is a precision non contact measurement system that can measure wall thickness, I.D., O.D. and coatings down to micron level. Text Box: Fixtures/Tools (cont.) Text Box: Details: I managed and designed this product along with architecting the software and user interface. What were traditionally products built from all catalog items I came up with a standard form factor base which gave the product it’s own identity as well as function. The base is open in the rear which is where the custom Driver Box resides (which I also designed), which made for a much cleaner looking product and took up less bench top real estate. The business portion of the fixture was made up of precision linear and rotational stages, quick change custom fixturing, pneumatics and controls which provided clamping pressures for the pneumatic Collets as well as providing inflation pressure.
