When it comes to investing in optical measuring instruments, you might be overwhelmed with so many choices that you cannot properly decide or make no choice at all. It can even lead to anxiety and leave you dissatisfied. That’s why it is important to keep yourself updated on everything there is to know about an optical measuring machine so that you can enjoy the maximum benefits.
Optical measuring instruments and multisensor measuring systems continue to emerge as vital tools for accurate dimensional measurement and optical measurement. The following five industries are utilizing these technologies to effectively address their manufacturing needs.
Optical Gaging Products (OGP®, www.ogpnet.com), a division of Quality Vision International Inc (QVI®), is celebrating its milestone 75-year anniversary as a world leading manufacturer of precision multisensor metrology systems for industrial Quality Control.
Metrology software products, metrology software, metrology measurement instruments… For the uninitiated, this foray into the world of metrology can be an overwhelming and complicated process.
A good metrology software provider can provide quality equipment and training, making a world of difference to your research and production. At Optical Gaging, we rounded up the best tips on how to select a good provider to meet all your metrology needs.
A 3D laser scanner is used to measure complex shapes and capture comprehensive data from various environments & applications. It is faster and easier to use than the traditional measuring devices like callipers, coordinate measuring machines, and gauges. The best thing about a 3D laser scanner?
What is 3D laser scanning?
A popular type of measurement tool is the 3D laser scanner. 3D scanners digitally capture and measure the details of physical objects with a line of laser light. They make use of non-contact and non-destructive technology.
What is an Optical Comparator?
An optical comparator projects magnified images of small product parts to identify measurement dimensions. Other than identifying dimensions, it also detects indentations, scratches, and other surface defects of the product.
Why is Metrology Software Training Essential?
Metrology software training is vital to get the most out of your metrology software products. With proper training, your employees can pick up the basics, effectively use the machines, learn about new software, and stay up to date with the latest metrology standards and trends.
Multisensor measuring systems, also known as video measuring machines, are measuring instruments widely used in different industries. Many components and products in these industries have to meet a high degree of geometrical conformance and few metrology equipment can sufficiently address such rigorous demands. This is where the video measuring system comes in – it is able to inspect, measure, evaluate and/or identify objects in a fast and accurate manner.
The unprecedented speed of technological change has made the 3D laser scanner a very common device in many industries today. 3D measurement tools are cost-effective methods to capture data so individuals can visualise as well as analyse objects quickly and efficiently.
A multisensor measuring machine is highly useful in measuring small or large parts. Its main feature is having more than 1 sensor on the machine.
All multisensor measuring machines consist of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis. The basic structure of the multisensor measuring machine, which is already inherently accurate, is further enhanced by software to provide the machine with additional accuracy. Once a programme is written, it can even measure the parts without operator intervention.
Myth #1: All optical measurement systems are the same.
Fact: Optical measurement systems vary from one another.
There are three primary types of measurement equipment— precision hand tools, contact sensor systems, and non-contact sensor systems.
There are four different types of 3D measuring tools — Multisensor measuring systems comprising contact sensor systems and non-contact sensor systems, 3D laser scanners, industrial CT scanners, and structured light 3D scanners.
