Optical Gaging Products (OGP), a division of Quality Vision International (QVI), has introduced the QVI Flex- Point high accuracy tactile coordinate measuring machine (CMM) to the industrial marketplace.
FlexPoint is an industrialized touch trigger probe CMM designed to measure small micro-manufactured parts, or small features on larger parts, with a high degree of accuracy. “FlexPoint offers the stability and physical isolation of agranite substructure, and its air bearing motion system accomplishes part translations smoothly and precisely,” said a company spokesperson. “This versatile CMMis equally at home on the manufacturing floor or in the QC laboratory.” Flex Point is available in two models: FlexPoint 111 with an XYZ measurement volume of 160 x 100 x 160mm, and Flex Point 212 with its 220 x 160 x 220mm XYZ measurement volume.
FlexPoint is equipped with QVI’s newZONE3 CAD-based 3D metrology software. ZONE3 features a simple user interface, and its kinematic model simulates the machine, part, fixtures and sensor, updated in real time. According to the company, built-in productivity maximizing tools, integrated GD&T functionality and visual validation of measurement intent offer speed and power to the measurement process.
