Frequently Asked Questions

Have Question? We are here to help

What types of parts can I measure with a Vision Measuring Machine?

Our machines are used to measure a vast range of parts across industries, including:

Electronics: Printed circuit boards (PCBs), connectors, semiconductor wafers.
Plastics & Rubber: O-rings, molded components, gaskets.
Medical Devices: Stents, surgical tools, implants.
Aerospace & Automotive: Small precision components, stampings.
General Manufacturing: Gears, cutting tools, metal stampings, and more.

What is the difference between manual and automated (CNC) systems?

Manual Systems: You manually move the stage and focus the camera on the part's features. These systems are perfect for one-off inspections, R&D, and low-volume applications.

Automated (CNC) Systems: The machine automatically moves the stage, adjusts the focus, and runs pre-programmed inspection routines. This automation is essential for high-volume production, where you need to measure hundreds or thousands of identical parts quickly and repeatedly.

What kind of lighting options are available?

Lighting is crucial for accurate edge detection. Our systems offer various advanced lighting options, including:

Coaxial lighting: Provides uniform light from the same axis as the lens, ideal for shiny or reflective surfaces.
Ring lighting: Illuminates the part from different angles to create shadows that highlight features.
Transmitted lighting: Shines light from beneath the part to capture the profile or silhouette.
Strobe lighting: Used on our high-speed models to take crisp images of a part in motion, dramatically reducing measurement time.

Is it possible to measure a part that is not perfectly aligned on the stage?

Yes. Our systems are equipped with powerful software features that allow for easy part alignment. You can use a "2-point" or "3-point" alignment function to automatically create a coordinate system based on your part's features, eliminating the need for tedious manual alignment and saving you valuable time.

What if I need to measure a part with both 2D and 3D features?

Our top-of-the-line vision systems offer a multi-sensor solution. They can be equipped with a high-resolution camera for non-contact measurements and an optional touch-trigger probe for contact measurements. This allows you to measure both a part's intricate 2D geometries and its 3D features, such as deep pockets, on a single machine.
