The System  

· Optical measurement system utilising light sensitive linear CCD arrays.

· Fast, easy to use PRO-MEASURE for Windows 2000 programming software.

· Headstock with CNC motorised rotation.

· Industry standard Morse 1 quick change tooling at head and tailstock.

· Thread basic measurement using mathematical compensation.

· Shop-hardened for use in harsh environments (IP54 rating).

· Standards database for Limits & Fits (ISO, DIN) and Thread Tolerancing (ISO,UNC, UNJ).

· Setting Master suppied for daily calibration.

· Traceability to international standards.

Measurement Capability

STATIC:

· Diameters, Lengths, Intersections, Gauge Diameters, Radii, Angles, radial height difference etc
· 2D work piece alignment - creation of work piece reference axis from two diameters.


DYNAMIC:

· Concentricity – parallel, maximum form and gauge diameters, interrupted diameters, taper and parallel thread   profile axes.

· Run out – plain, interrupted diameters and face run out.

· Roundness, Cylindricity and Straightness.

· Diameter with rotation - ovality, max. min. average diameter of plain or interrupted diameters.

· Hexagon - across flats dimension, symmetry of flats to axis, max. dimension across corners.

· Section analysis with rotation - max. and min. section radius and angular locations.

· Offset diameters - eccentricity and symmetry.

· 3D work piece alignment - creation of work piece reference axis from plain diameters and thread profiles.


THREAD MEASUREMENT: (without Slewing Mechanism)
· Parallel vee-form – major and pitch diameters, pitch, flank angles.
· Taper threads – major and pitch diameters at any location, pitch, taper, flank angles, gauge   length, useable   thread length and crest profiles.

IMAGE CLEANING:
· A software filter which can be set at different levels to reduce the affect of contamination on the work piece.
