Abstract:
1. An inspection system for performing a scan of a part, comprising: a first multi-axis robotic device with a first end effector; a second multi-axis robotic device with a second end effector; a slide assembly comprising a first linear slide and a second linear slide for supporting, respectively, the first multi-axis robotic device and the second multi-axis robotic device thereon, wherein the first linear slide and the second linear slide are disposed on either side of the part and are configured to permit linear movement of the first multi-axis robotic device independent of, and relative to, the second multi-axis robotic device, and wherein, during the scan, the first end effector and the second end effector are positioned on opposite sides of the part to exchange a signal between the first robotic device and the second robotic device.
