Metrios Re-Light Optical Measuring Machine

The Metrios Re-Light optical measuring machine provides users with a single device for components of all shapes, flat and cylindrical. It is possible to measure every side of a part in one complete cycle with the machine’s innovative automatic rotation. It is sufficiently robust for use in shop-floor production environments. Measuring on the shop floor supports rapid intervention that ensures the process does not go out of tolerance, avoiding costly waste. The machine provides users with cost-effective, short cycle times and absolute precision and reliability.

Central to the machine’s impressive capabilities is its automatic rotation function. By providing the potential to obtain both static and dynamic measurements using a single instrument, users not only enjoy short cycle times, but also the assurance that these times will be repeatable. Furthermore, users obtain all of the results in a single Metrios report, simplifying the entire quality control process. Another notable feature is guided part orientation for more precise positioning and the elimination of operator error.

Users can simply deploy the ‘Re-Light’ function to position any parts that do not sit comfortably on the measuring surface. As well as flat components, it is possible to measure any type of cylindrical part/feature using the Metrios Re-Light. Whether the component has undercuts, keyways or any other complex features, the machine automatically finds the reference point to orientate the measurement.

Accuracy is assured with the use of proven Metrios technology based on high-resolution camera and three different lighting systems. Through a motorised ring light, the Metrios Re-Light can change the angle of lighting incidence on the part and provide different angles of light source within the same measurement cycle.

The machine offers a wide working field, fast measuring speeds, and an industrial multi-touch screen for clear visibility and simple operation.
