Galileo AV350 video measurement offers a large, square 14" x 14" X, Y work area and extra Z-clearance at 8". The Z-clearance, combined with extra rigidity provides the necessary space for multi-sensor attachments, including vision, contact probe and laser scanning. The Galileo AV350 is ideal for use in QC labs, research, engineering and manufacturing environments.

The AV350's color optical system provides a zoom magnification ratio of 12:1 with a programmable magnification range from 15x to 550x (on screen) with auxiliary lenses. An LED illuminator or triple output fiber-optic, ring light and co-axial illumination provides exceptional lighting. Dark field simulated LED ring light, quadrant controllable, is also available. Other options include a Renishaw PH6 contact probe with TP20 module and an Optimet Mark III Laser Probe. The system includes a 24" widescreen, flat panel LCD display.

The AV350 work envelope offers a motion volume of 14.1" x 14.1" x 8.1". Overall size of the Galileo AV350 including its supplied pedestal is 40" x 50" x 76" and the system weighs approximately 500 lb. Maximum workload (evenly distributed) is 25 lb. High accuracy is offered at E2=2.5+5L/1,000 and an encoder resolution of 0.1µm (4µ").

The AV350 includes Metronics QuadraChek QC-5000 3-D Metrology Software with video edge detection and full CNC control. Utilizing the familiar MS Windows operating system, QC-5000 software is full-featured and intuitive. It allows you to obtain, store, manage and distribute precision measurement data directly from the lab or the shop floor.
