About Us

Who We Are

Optical Gaging (S) Pte Ltd (OGP Singapore – OGS) was established in Singapore in 1995 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Quality Vision International, Inc. USA (QVI), the holding company for Optical Gaging Products USA (OGP) worldwide.

OGP’s leading family of SmartScope video measuring system was introduced in 1992 to Southeast Asia for solving customers’ daily measurement problems through OGS. OGS’ inception in Singapore was timely, filling a niche for the measurement of microscopic parts and easily deformed pieces in manufacturing, supporting the city-state’s industrialization. Through its training and application support programs, OGS successfully transferred critical skills to customers and won for OGS a strong customer base including top 20% industry players in the region. OGS believes that each sales signals the beginning of a new friendship and pledges to provide innovative and quality products backed by a team of dynamic sales and skilled technical personnel.

Optical Gaging (S) Pte Ltd is also the regional headquarters for the Far East and Middle East. Over the years, OGS has persistently expanded its network of sales and technical centers, including authorized representatives across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, South China – Guangdong Province (Shenzhen, Dongguan, Zhuhai, Guangzhou, Foshan, Zhongshan), Hongkong, Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia & Qatar).

Here at Optical Gaging (S) Pte Ltd, we work hand in hand with our customers and authorized representatives to ensure peace of mind after owning a piece of our OGP metrology systems. OGS provides after-sales support which includes training, application support, and technical service supports – installation, calibration, maintenance, troubleshooting, servicing, upgrading of our products. With our network of fully trained personnel nearby and inventory of genuine common parts in our store, our business partners are in good hand.

OGP is Founded

OGP and Eastman Kodak introduce the telecentric relay lens principle. Still regarded as the optical system of choice for high precision optical systems, it provides a constant working clearance and erect images.

Projectron

The world’s first electronic edge detection system for optical comparators is introduced. Using photocell technology and analog circuitry, Projectron foreshadows the need for automation in the inspection industry. 1956 - Automation Gages, Inc. founded. 1959 - Ex-Cell-O Corporation acquires Eastman Kodak’s Contour Projector® line and OGP®

AG MODEL 875

The world’s ﬁrst video inspection system debuts. An early look into the future, the Model 875 clearly demonstrates the capabilities latent in this technology.

First OGP Built Projector

OQ-30, a side screen Contour Projector with a revolutionary granite surface plate foundation, is introduced. OGP joins Automated Gages.

The Clip

The CLIP (Closed Loop Incremental Positioner) introduction moves automation further forward, making automated positioning of comparator worktables possible.

Mercury Arc Surface Illuminator

This patented innovation, with its unique paraboloidal reflector, enables high magnification inspection of surface details for the first time.

OQ Debuts

The world’s first side table optical comparator, dubbed the “projector for the eighties,” quickly becomes an industry favorite due to its innovative design.

Vidicom Qualifier 863

A remarkable machine, combines solid state electronics, gray scale image processing, and programmable magnification into an affordable, non-contact measuring system.

Vidiprobe Contour Projector

The Vidiprobe introduction effectively bridges contour projector and video inspection technologies.

Q-See

OGP leads the way again with the introduction of the first video system designed specifically for ease of use and low cost.

Intelligent Qualifier 2000

Introduced as one of the world’s first multisensor coordinate measurement systems, the IQ-2000 can be equipped with vision, touch probe, and laser scanning sensors.

SmartScope Launched

SmartScope® brings fully automatic 3-D measuring to the benchtop at half the price of previous systems. Its colour camera, programmable zoom lens, and easy to use software quickly make it the world’s most popular non-contact measuring system.

OGP reinvents the Benchtop Comparator with TopBench

Features normally found only on larger systems are now available in one compact, benchtop system. AccuCentric Innovation These revolutionary optics are the first to display fully corrected images for both direct projection and surface illumination.

OHA-50, Special-Purpose System

An ultra-accuracy, small travel system designed specifically to meet the needs of the growing micro-manufacturing industry. Volumetric accuracy is better than one micron (0.001 mm).

SmartRing is introduced

A patented, multiple ring LED illuminator offers unparalleled flexibility for video measuring systems. With it, lighting is controlled for brightness, angle of incidence, and direction.

SmartScope Flash & Flare Debut

A new patented profile illumination featuring a linear array of LED lights is introduced. LEDs are illuminated sequentially to track the optical system as it moves in the x-axis. The number of LEDs illuminated, and their individual brightness, is changed depending on the zoom magnification level to match the numeric aperture of the optics.

TeleStar Zoom Lens

Designed and built specifically for precision video metrology providing a phenomenally clear high contrast image with virtually zero distortion.

Rainbow Probe

Capable of extreme accuracy for surface topography by using the concept of chromatic dispersion, this sensor determines change in the height of a surface by measuring the colour of the reflected light it sees.

SmartScope Quest/Vantage 650 Unveiled

This new top-of-the-line system combines large load capacity, outstanding accuracy, extensive measurement volume, and multisensor capability (SP 25 scanning probe) to open the application envelope to parts previously not suitable for optical equipment.

Ground-breaking Optical Comparator Technology

Innovative all-LED TruLight® illumination, a world-first use in optical comparators and eCAD®, an electronic overlay package that allows a CAD model to project virtual charts onto the comparator screen, for comparison with part images are applied to new benchtop horizontal Contour Projectors®.

QVI’s Most Precise Laser Point Sensor Launched

The TeleStar® TTL interferometric laser uses innovative electro-optical technology. In interferometry, light from a single coherent source is typically split into two beams that travel in different optical paths, which are then combined again to produce wave interference. The resolution obtained with interferometry is correlated directly to the wavelength of the light.

ZONE3 Metrology Software Introduced

The first 3D CAD-based metrology software, ZONE3®, combines all metrology software functionality into one package designed to work with SmartScope multisensor measurement systems.

Newest Generation of Coordinate Measuring Systems

FlexPoint™ is the first high-accuracy flexible gaging system for measurement of small precision parts, represents an alternative to custom hard gaging.

TurnCheck System Addresses Shaft Measurement Uncertainty

QVI® develops a new telecentric optical system specially for shaft measurement and coupled it with a new mechanical system that allows the optics/illumination/camera to scan the shaft while it is rotating.

New Optical Point Sensors

VersaFlex™ packages up to three sensors in one cluster. The optical/video probe combines precision optics, imaging, and illumination in a compact and powerful sensor assembly small enough for use on an articulating probe head. The TeleStar interferometric laser is packaged into a “pen” to allow this very high resolution sensor to be used with the VersaFlex cluster, or deployed off-axis on systems that do not use the TeleStar zoom lens.
