Legex®1200 Series CMM Leverages Technology to Deliver Ultra-High Accuracy, Capacity and Value
(Aurora, IL) New Legex®1200 Series CNC Coordinate Measuring Machines from Mitutoyo America Corporation provide the highest levels of accuracy and capacity in their class. By combining state-of-the-art technologies in design, electronics, software, sensors and materials, the new Mitutoyo CMM offers performance improvements while at the same time providing a significant price advantage.
Ultra-high accuracy (MPEE = [0.6+1.5L/1000]µm), a large measuring range (X:1210mm, Y:1210mm, Z:810mm) and high traverse speed (300mm/sec.) make the Legex 1200 CNC-CMM both productive and practical – in applications as diverse as measurement of large telescope lenses and inspection of large metallic molds, engine blocks and similar components – whether in production runs, or small lots.
The Legex 1200 is driven by MCOSMOS (Mitutoyo Controlled Open System for Modular Operation Support) software with modules supporting virtually every CAD format while providing routines for in-line measurement, data feedback, and process management. MCOSMOS also makes training easy and intuitive.
The construction of Legex 1200 machines incorporates the latest technologies. For example, spheroidal graphite ductile cast iron is used for the chassis which, together with air-damped spring isolators, effectively attenuates vibration. Also, use of thermally-stable components and real-time temperature compensation maintains ultra-high accuracy, even under extreme conditions.
A wide range of probes is supported including contacting, scanning and touch-trigger as well as laser and vision.
