Press Release Summary:
Offering automated video-based inspection and measurement, SmartScope ZIP® Lite 250 and 300 feature XYZ measurement ranges of 250 x 250 x 150 mm and 300 x 300 x 150 mm, respectively. Systems include joystick-controlled, mechanical bearing, motorized XYZ stages with 0.5 µm linear scales mounted to granite base and column. Designed to automatically calibrate itself with each magnification change, AccuCentric® 7:1 motorized zoom lens keeps images in focus and on-axis throughout zoom range.
Original Press Release:
OGP Expands Its Popular SmartScope ZIP Family of Dimensional Metrology Systems
Optical Gaging Products (OGP®) announces the expansion of its popular SmartScope ZIP® family of multisensor dimensional measurement systems, with the addition of two new models, SmartScope ZIP Lite 250 and 300. These new systems represent a cost-effective way to receive the benefits of completely automated video-based inspection and measurement, with the added advantage of advanced ZIP motorized zoom optics. These compact systems provide XYZ measurement ranges of 250x250x150 mm (with 300 mm extended X axis optional) for the ZIP Lite 250, and 300x300x150 mm for the ZIP Lite 300. They feature joystick-controlled precision mechanical bearing motorized XYZ stages, with 0.5 µm linear scales mounted to a metrologically stable granite base and column. SmartScope ZIP Lite systems use OGP's MeasureMind® 3D MultiSensor metrology software, designed to take full advantage of a 3D measurement environment. MeasureMind 3D combines an easy-to-use interface with high-powered algorithms for dependable and accurate measurement performance. Measure-X® metrology software, now available with CAD import, is optional.
SmartScope ZIP Lite features a precise 7 to 1 motorized zoom lens that keeps images in focus and on-axis throughout its zoom range. The patented AccuCentric® zoom lens automatically calibrates itself with each magnification change, over the life of the measurement system. A wide array of optional lens attachments and adapter tubes expand the magnification range, providing further value and versatility. LED coaxial and profile illumination and a high resolution color CCD camera yield high contrast, true color images, while the patented white-LED SmartRing(TM) surface light supplies programmable light intensity, angle, and direction. The user may add touch probe and/or DRS(TM) laser for tactile and surface contouring for multisensor versatility.
SmartScope ZIP Lite will be exhibited at IMTS 2010, in OGP Booth E-5525. For additional information on this system or any of the OGP metrology solutions, contact Optical Gaging Products at (800) 647-4243, www.ogpnet.com or email at info@ogpnet.com.
