Capable of Optical Edge Detection and Crosshair Measurement, Mx200 probing options are spontaneous.

Popular geometric tolerancing and part programming can be applied to measured and constructed features using the industry-leading Metlogix tolerance system. Nominal and tolerance limits are quickly applied and viewed accurately in a large, easy to read LCD display with LED capacitive touchscreen. Metlogix axis support includes XY, XYZ or XYQ, and DROs also feature multiple language support.
Users may choose from one of three report formats with the Mx200 DRO: CSV, Standard or Tolerance. Report contents can include a report title, time and date stamps, and all feature measurement results data. Reports can be printed as hard copies to a wireless Windows compatible printer, or exported as CSV or TSV data files to a USB flash storage device.
