What is micro-vu?

Micro-Vu – Micro-Vu Metrology Software. The Micro-Vu Excel Measuring Center is a gantry stage system equipped with a high-resolution camera-based measuring system to get fast, accurate measurements on a wide variety of parts. Excel can be configured with additional measurement probes and sensors.

Is Micro-Vu a cmm?

Micro-Vu Excel Automated bridge-type Optical CMM with 2.5μm accuracy & 0.05μm resolution for large parts.

What is OGP SmartScope?

OGP SmartScope systems combine optical, laser and tactile sensors, letting you measure parts more completely, with lower uncertainty and in less time. SmartScope systems from OGP utilize multiple capabilities, usually found in multiple specialized systems, within a single system.

Why do we use metrology?

In the modern world, the study of measurement is a vital component in many fields, including manufacturing, engineering, science and technology. Within these fields, metrology is used to validate and verify to pre-defined standards. These are Scientific Metrology, Industrial Metrology and Legal Metrology.

Why optical comparators are used?

An optical comparator is a measurement tool used to inspect and measure the dimensions of small manufactured parts. Images of the part are magnified using illumination sources, lenses and mirrors to make the 2-D measurement.

What is the profile projector?

A profile projector is an optical measuring instrument used in metrology and quality control. This device allows the shadow of the part to be measured to be projected on a screen which is then used by the operator to perform the measurements.x.

What is metrology & its types?

Metrology can be divided into three subfields: scientific metrology, applied metrology, and legal metrology. Legal metrology is the end of the line, concerning regulatory requirements of well established measurements and measuring instruments for the protection of consumers and fair trade.

What is metrology and measurements?

Metrology is the science of measurement and its application. It involves traceability or comparison with a “standard” or between different measuring systems. Metrology includes all theoretical and practical aspects of measurement, whatever the measurement uncertainty or the field of application.
