OGP Announces SmartScope Flash 500 - Large Travel, Low Cost Automatic Measurement System



Rochester, NY, September, 2004 - Optical Gaging Products, Inc. (OGP®) announces a new member of the company's popular SmartScope® Flash(TM) family of multi-sensor measurement systems. At the request of budget-conscious customers looking for Flash capabilities with a large measurement volume and small system footprint, the new SmartScope Flash 500 offers a large 20x18x8 inch (500x450x200 mm) XYZ travel in a compact floor stand system at an attractive price.

SmartScope Flash 500 offers a number of unique features that ensure measurement accuracy. The system's optical assembly moves in the X-axis across an angled steel crossbeam while the part moves in the Y-axis on a precision servo-driven stage. A stable granite platform ensures proper damping and structural integrity. Integral system electronics minimize the system footprint while maximizing available stage travel.

Multiple illumination sources include the patented LED SmartRing(TM) light, coaxial (TTL) surface illuminator, and LED back light. Multi-sensor capable, the system can be configured with a touch probe, laser scanner, or OGP micro-probes.

Powered by the user's choice of OGP's exclusive measurement software packages, SmartScope Flash 500 uses point-and-click tools to simplify the creation and operation of automatic measurement routines. System capabilities are further enhanced with software options that include form fitting, SPC, CAD translation, and custom report writing.
