Nikon today announced the release of CNC Video Measuring Systems NEXIV VMZ-R3020 and NEXIV VMZ-R6555, capable of accurately measuring the dimensions and shapes of high-density and multi-layered electronic components. Utilizing optical measuring technology and image processing done by the computer, the CNC Video Measuring System automatically measures the dimensions and shapes of electronic components. The system processes the images taken by the CCD camera for precise edge detection.
The NEXIV VMZ-R3020 maintains the basic measuring performance and meets the demand for downsizing such as shorter stage strokes, smaller dimensions and lighter body weight. The NEXIV VMZ-R6555 allows for faster measurement on the larger size of printed circuit boards. Automatic measurement of many smaller parts on the large pallet contributes to reducing the cost of parts inspections.
