The Nikon NEXIV VMZ R 3020 is an automated measuring system. The Nikon NEXIV VMZ R 3020 is suitable for measurement of small components such as mechanical parts, molded parts, and high-density PCBs. The Nikon NEXIV VMZ R 3020 has a 300 x 200 mm stroke.[1]
What it is
The Nikon NEXIV VMZ-R3020 is a vision measurement system with a 300 by 200 millimeter measuring stroke. The VMZ-R3020 uses an automated measuring platform and Nikon Automeasure NEXIV software.[1]
How it works
The VMZ-R3020 uses zooming optical heads with LED episcopic and diascopic illumination. The VMZ-R3020 also uses autofocus, a linear encoder for measurement accuracy, and a black-and-white or optional color CCD camera depending on configuration.[1]
Where it fits in the process flow
The VMZ-R3020 is suitable for small components such as mechanical parts, molded parts, and high-density PCBs. The VMZ-R3020 is also used for measurement and inspection tasks that benefit from controlled magnification, autofocus, and programmable motion over a flat specimen area.[1]
Applications
The VMZ-R3020 is intended for small components such as mechanical parts, molded parts, and high-density PCBs. The VMZ-R3020 can also detect transparent layers down to 0.1 millimeter and supports illumination setups for different specimen surfaces.[1]
