Vision Measuring Systems – Precision Optical Metrology for Dimensional Accuracy
A Vision Measuring System is a non-contact, high-precision measurement instrument that uses advanced optics, image processing software, and high-resolution cameras to evaluate the dimensions, geometry, and contours of small to medium-sized parts. These systems are ideal for capturing 2D and 3D measurements with micron-level accuracy, ensuring quality control across production lines.
Unlike traditional coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), vision systems are faster, non-destructive, and suitable for soft, delicate, or complex-shaped components. Most units come equipped with motorized stages, programmable CNC control, and integrated measurement software.
