Touch probe adds new dimension to measurements
Adding 3D contact measurement to noncontact optical and laser measurement makes the Nikon iNexiv VMA-2520 system a truly compact multisensor machine.
System checks component quality
DNTR will be using an iNEXIV VMA 2520 video measuring system to make rapid checks on the quality of bought-in metal and plastic components
In addition to the latest Nexiv video measuring system, Nikon will also display the new MM400 and MM800 series of manual metrology microscopes.
These new systems harness a variety of innovative features such as through-the-lens laser autofocus (TTL Laser AF), automatic edge detection and white LED illumination to create the performance needed to meet the demands of modern digital metrology and imaging.
The MM-400/800 Series models are the first Nikon measuring microscopes to be equipped with TTL Laser AF with a 0.75um spot diameter and 0.5s focusing speed.
The instruments also feature noncontact, z-axis movement and a newly developed split-prism focusing aid (FA) that automatically corrects measurement errors caused by differences in the depth of focus between different objectives.
Visitors will also be able to experience Nikon's LV Series of industrial microscopes.
These can now be configured with a wider range of illuminators and focusing units - significantly increasing their scope to be customised for use within OEM applications.
Award winning centrable CFI60 objectives and high mechanical quality serve to further refine images, which can then be captured using any of the many variants in the Nikon Series of camera systems. Request free introductory details about products from Nikon UK ...
