Mitutoyo America Corporation released the Quick Vision Pro Series, the latest generation of Mitutoyo Vision Measurement Systems. Quick Vision Pro Series machines have high-performance technologies greatly improving 3D non-contact measurement and productivity. This highly advanced non-contact measuring system delivers even more speed, efficiency, and versatility to the Mitutoyo Vision Measurement line.
The new QV Pro Series features newly developed StrobeSnap vision measuring function speeding up run time by approximately 35 to 45% regardless of measurement position or continuity while achieving higher throughput and high-precision measurements.
Auto focus on the QV Pro Series is about 39% faster than previous models, which were already fastest in their class, without loss of accuracy.
An optional Stream function realizes very high throughput using non-stop measurements synchronizing the main XY unit drive and strobe lighting. Stream takes images intermittently without stopping the stage and performs batch measurements at the same time, greatly improving measurement speeds.
Optional Tracking Auto Focus (TAF) utilizes a laser tracker keeping the part in focus while moving the joystick, eliminating the need to keep manually focusing on the part if it isn’t flat. When a part program is running, TAF keeps the part in focus, so the program doesn’t have to stop for auto focus and stops potential errors from occurring if the part is out of focus. TAF cuts speed measurement times by approximately 30%, further improving throughput while maintaining high accuracy.
All the QV Pro Series machines can be retrofit with Stream capability, RGB (Red, Green, Blue) illumination systems, and side-mounted touch probe kits.
