Nikon Corporation (Brighton, MI) has announced the launch of the APDIS MV5X, the latest addition to its APDIS Laser Radar product lineup. Building upon the proven technology of the MV4x0 series, the MV5X represents a significant advancement in non-contact measurement technology, achieving high-precision, high-speed measurement in a compact and lightweight form, enhancing the quality of the manufacturing process. The MV5X is highly accurate with fast measurements — up to six times faster scanning than previous models with fast and efficient feature measurement is available. More data collection enables better decision-making and improved process control even during production ramp-up. Weighing less than 12 kg, the compact system can measure where and when you need it. The MV5X can easily be taken to the part and set-up as a portable measurement system or mounted on a robot or AGV for fully automated measurements. The same system can be used in various environments, ranging from a metrology room to the production line, ensuring measurement consistency throughout the manufacturing process.
