INSPHERE release next generation ORATM robot control software
ORA facilitates more accurate and reliable automated processes where manufacturers benefit from fewer quality issues, improved throughput, lower material waste, reduced downtime and greater production efficiencies overall.
A live digital twin with real time control.
INSPHERE Ltd, innovators of intelligent automation solutions for advanced manufacturing, are releasing the next generation of ORA robot control software which provides greater opportunities for process improvements and a more intuitive user experience for advanced manufacturers through a live digital twin.
ORA facilitates more accurate and reliable automated processes where manufacturers benefit from fewer quality issues, improved throughput, lower material waste, reduced downtime and greater production efficiencies overall.
Uniquely adaptable in-process control of advanced manufacturing processes
ORA software works with a variety of sensing instruments from IONA, INSPHERE's original measurement solution, to laser trackers and more. This sensor agnostic feature provides manufacturers with the opportunity to integrate ORA into any existing robot cell set up and benefit from 24/7 monitoring and in-process adjustments, without manual intervention.
The essential platform for robot guidance, coordinate frame management and live visualisation.
Measurement sensors gather all positional data from a robot cell, which is transferred to ORA and compared to the desired activity specification. A digital twin is shown in the user interface to accurately represent activity, allowing users to view frames and their associated CAD models in real time. Deviations in robot activity are identified, with positional revisions fed back to the robots, allowing for corrections to be made in-process, thereby avoiding production errors.
The updated ORA user interface is incredibly intuitive, with users requiring little prior knowledge of metrology systems, and data is clearly presented for easy interpretation of results.
The updated ORA software is available to manufacturers now - more information is available at insphereltd.com.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
