  | We're pleased to announce our new These are precision systems designed specifically to inspect and measure big and heavy parts. They have up to 60" of travel and support loads of up to 300 lbs! Parts are set on the system's X-Axis stage, which is built using precision rails and is set on a floor-mounted granite base. The camera is mounted on the Z-axis and the entire assembly, along with the front and back illumination, move up and down on the Y-Axis. In this way, the Y and Z axes are completely disconnected from the rugged granite-base-mounted X-axis that supports all of the part's weight. The axes have 0.25um resolution encoders for high-accuracy positional feedback. This innovative configuration is designed to provide optimal rigidity and eliminate any mechanical deflections. Everything is optimized to allow the system to produce very accurate measurements of long and heavy parts. And these systems provide all of the advantages of the 500 Series VisionGauge® Digital Optical Comparator, including our Patented | Click here to be redirected to the Web site |
