images of components under test. ChamberCam is based on Aicon's MoveInspect Technology, which allows engineers to measure parts from a few millimeters to many meters in size. However, to endure the extreme temperatures that can occur in environmental
of view, and its advanced telecentric optics keep parts in focus. With 75 mm vertical stage adjustment, SNAP can measure parts up to 100 mm tall. Substage profile light, coaxial surface light, and a programmable 8-sector multicolor ring light
and guarantee that the shape of a part stays within the desired profile limits. FIGURE 2. To allow the operator to measure parts , CrossCheck software provides users with simple-to-use shape tools that act as virtual micrometers. These are
the laser as it sweeps along, enabling the object to be accurately replicated digitally. Laser scanners can quickly measure parts both large and small while generating far greater numbers of data coordinates than touch probes without the need for
its good quantum efficiency across the spectrum and its 12-bit dynamic range. "Because the system was required to measure parts with a contrast ratio on the order of 3000:1," says Collier, "we needed a camera with a high dynamic range
resolve the ambiguity and determine the shape of the part. Coordinate-measuring machines are versatile. They can measure parts having virtually any shape and a range of sizes and can be very accurate. Obtaining high resolution, however, is
a part, it’s expected that the width will vary between good and bad parts. However, one can still expect to measure parts with straight edges and similar contrast. If the straightness or contrast of the edge found is suddenly different
select tools and parameters through simple menus and dialogue boxes, then links cells together to locate objects or measure parts . A hand-held control pad enables rapid navigation through the worksheet's cells and menus, allowing a user to
