New Improved Software
for Video Measuring
—Nikon
Operators of Nikon Metrology’s NEXIV range of CNC video measur- ing machines have for many years been able to harness the power of the manufacturer’s AutoMeasure programming and reporting software,
which includes the ability to compare inspection results automatically against CAD models.
In the latest version of the soft- ware, AutoMeasure version 13, two features have been added that allow even novice operators to extract the best performance from the systems. They reduce operational costs and raise productivity, leading to competitive ad- vantage for a manufacturing company or inspection bureau.
First, for the CNC video measuring system to recognize the shape of the target under investigation correctly, it is necessary to set appropriate illumi- nation conditions. Optimum illumina- tion depends on selecting a combina- tion of multiple lighting mechanisms, requiring a high level of skill. In Au- toMeasure version 13, the appropriate
lighting conditions for the target shape are set automatically. The company reports it avoids the time-consuming process of trying to optimize them and delivers uniform, stable, repeatable measurement and data acquisition for quality control, whether on the shop floor or in an inspection room.
Second, since many steps are required in the preparation of mea- surement programs and there is con- siderable flexibility in the method an operator can adopt to create an inspec- tion cycle, variability often arises espe- cially for novice operators, sometimes it may not be clear how to proceed at all. The latest version of AutoMeasure has a navigation function that guides the operator through to completion of the inspection program in an easy-
