Lets you perform stable andhighly accurate measurements
anywhere within the screen.

Stable and highly accurate
measurement of large workpieces

Eliminating Human Errors

Highly accurate stages

The highest level of measuring accuracy
within the screen in its class Patent registered (Japan)• Stages come in various sizes with an accuracy of ± (3.5
+0.02 L) μm, letting you perform highly accurate and stablemeasurements, and obtain reliable data for any kind of
workpiece.

Utilizes our in-house developed Telecentric
Optical System Patent registered (Japan, the U.S.A. and Europe)

Uses calibration artifacts traceable tonational standards• E rrors due to height are strictly minimized within a depthof focus with steps of up to 22 mm, and measurements are
possible in which human errors are eliminated.

•M itutoyo has a large collection of standard artifacts whose
dimensions are traceable to the national length standards ofJapan. These artifacts are used to calibrate the specialized
equipment used in the calibration of Mitutoyo's measuring
tools and instruments, and so traceability to international
length standards is established and maintained. Mitutoyo
also provides the service of temperature calibration that is
absolutely essential to high-accuracy length measurement.

• Accuracy of ±2 μm within the screen, repeatability of ±1 μm
in high-resolution mode and the ability to focus through awide range.

Both a wide view field and high accuracy• Sub-pixel processing enables high-accuracy edge detection.

Effective use of CAD model

Early detection of process irregularities

Measurement support software: QS-CAD I/FCentralized process management software:
MeasurLink

2D CAD model data (DXF-, or IGES-formatted) can be imported
into QIPAK. Conversely, QIPAK measurement results can beconverted into 2D CAD model data.
The design value for each measurement
item is automatically entered. Since thegraphics window makes the present
location easy to identify, the operator
can quickly move the stage a given
point in the 2D CAD model.

Statistical data can be displayed in real-time, making early
detection of process irregularities possible. Early identificationof an out-of-control situation
enables rapid remedial action to
be taken when necessary.
