Automeasure software is a complete package that includes interactive measurement and teaching wizards, CAD interface functionality, shape analysis capability and data management tools. The software also integrates with shape profile, 3D surface analysis, and sophisticated report generation programs.
This program enables CAD data to be read into the Virtual Video Window on a separate computer, allowing the operator to use NEXIV's teaching program with the same operational procedures as on the online computer. This eliminates the necessity of using the actual workpiece during teaching sessions and lets the NEXIV system concentrate on automatic measurement for increased productivity.
This program makes it possible to measure and judge 2-dimensional profile shapes in a workpiece that cannot be measured in the normal geometric mode. Now more accurate quantitative measurements can be taken than with the chart comparison method using profile projectors and/or conventional measuring microscopes.
Shape Profile Function: When the operator enters the start point, end point, and the measurement pitch, NEXIV automatically performs the measurement and saves the results.
Shape Evaluation Function: Deviations between the measurement results and the nominal shape data are graphically displayed on the monitor or printed out for easy evaluation.
Shape "Best Fit" Function: This function is used to minimize the deviation between the measurement results and the nominal shape data. Deviation evaluation is easy even when the two use different coordinates.
Creation of Nominal Shape Data from CAD Data: Nominal shape data can be created from CAD data in the DXF/IGES file format.
This program enables multiple teaching files to be run sequentially according to set replay instructions.
A set of default teaching wizards provides step-by-step guides to facilitate teaching, regardless of the knowledge or experience of the operator. Besides these, operators can customize teaching wizards by registering frequently used teaching procedures.
The measurement wizards guide operators, step by step, through what is required to achieve their tasks. In addition to the default wizards, operators can create customized wizards by registering frequently used procedures to streamline future operation.
By importing CAD data (IGES, DXF, Gerber, and Excellon) of a workpiece, the operator can display graphics in the CAD graphic window on NEXIV
VMR AutoMeasure. This facilitates efficiency in teaching and shortens working time.
With the developed Communication Package Program, users can program their own application software to remotely control the various functions of the NEXIV AutoMeasure on a Visual Basic 6.0/Net environment. By sending variables to the AutoMeasure teaching file, workpieces of different sizes can be measured on a single program. The results data then can be sent back to the VB program.
Bird's-Eye View: NEXIV's 3D surface analysis program. Developed by OriginLab® Corporation and running on Origin™, this program allows data obtained using the Scan Measure feature provided with TTL Laser AF to be plotted in a 3-dimensional format. After that, 3-dimensional shape analysis and 2-dimensional cross-section shape analysis can be performed.
D-SURF: This software not only draws 3D graphics of a minuscule workpiece surface measured by the NEXIV system, but it also provides various analyses such as the calculation of various evaluation values.
Gear Evaluation Software: This software provides evaluations on various parameters of the measured workpiece, including pitch deviations, tooth space runout, base tangent length, and dimension overpin , based on industrial standards.
Real-Time SPC via DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange): Using a DDE Link function, measured data can be immediately transferred to spreadsheets such as Microsoft Excel®, SPC-PC IV, SPC-PC IV Excel, and others, making real-time SPC analysis possible. Note: SPC-PC IV and SPC-PC IV Excel are products of Quality America, Inc.
Focus images synthesis program: The MultiLayer View program can be used to synthesize focus portions of multiple images of the same field of view taken at different layers, creating one perfect image that is in focus throughout. Before synthesis is carried out, the images can be displayed as thumbnails on a PC monitor so that users can select the desired focus portions.
VMR Report Generator: This software is fully compatible with the NEXIV VMR AutoMeasure software and enables the quick generation of inspection results sheets in various report forms including user-designed forms. Users can even customize the program for their own easier use by making macro scripts.
Redditch-based Clifford Springs uses a Nikon Metrology iNEXIV VMA-4540 CNC video measuring machine, installed in May 2016 to determine the diameter of seal energising springs after manufacture.
Recently LED light demand is increasing rapidly due to conservation of the environment. LED is mounted on the die and this position and tilting is very critical for efficient brightness. In order to check big volume LED, measurement requires high accuracy and throughput.
The design of fuel injection systems for internal combustion engines has become increasingly complex in recent years. As the design and manufacturing requirements for fuel injectors have become more complex, the need for a fast and accurate, automated inspection method has also increased.
A Medical MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical System) is a miniature implantable device often used to continuously monitor health issues like blood pressure or blood analysis, providing data to remote locations and require full 100 percent inspection.
Multi-Lumen tubing typically has a number of individual channels running through its interior. Variables in sample dimensions that must be measured include outer diameter, numerous inner diameters, and various wall and web thicknesses.
A probe card is a mechanical interface between an electronic test system and a semiconductor wafer. Probe tip position and geometry is critical to the proper function of the probe card and a stable and highly accurate platform is necessary to perform these complex measurements.
Sensors are electronic devices that measure an environmental condition, quantitifies and converts it into a signal that can be read by an observer or an instrument. Many sensors are based on etched silicon wafers and it is important to measure its critical dimensions and the depth of the etching.
UK subcontractor Microtec EDM supplies prototypes and components for innovative and high profile projects. The company recently raised the capability of its metrology department with a powerful CNC video measuring system, an iNEXIV VMA-4540.
