VAST XT.

The line of active VAST sensors plays a

major role in all metrology applications

that demand maximum precision with large

stylus configurations. VAST XT provides the

foundation for entry into the world of active

scanning technology.

VAST XT continually monitors probe deflection.

The same low measuring force is generated and

regulated by the probe – thus minimizing dynamic

influences such as stylus bending.

In addition to active scanning, this sensor also

permits single-point measurements: for example,

the sensor enables the flexible use of complex

stylus configurations and self-centering.

As a result of its high-speed scanning capabilities,

VAST XT can complete practically any task: form

and length measurements, curve and freeform

measurements, and reverse engineering. The

applications cover plastic machined parts and

Styrofoam, brake components, crankshafts,

engine blocks and turbine blades.

Car body measurement in sharp focus.

Quality assurance in car body construction

is among the most complex tasks in metro-

logy. EagleEye Navigator is based on a com-

pletely new optical measuring technology

that precisely meets these demands.

Automobile manufacturing requires measurements

of countless bores in addition to edges, sections

or transitions. Checking bores is extremely time-

consuming work, particularly for serial inspection.

EagleEye Navigator leads to time savings of almost

50% for the entire car body. Typical procedures in

traditional measuring methods are completely

eliminated: no assembly and disassembly of

threaded adapters, no material, and storage or

handling costs.

Also, the use of EagleEye Navigator immediately

reduces reaction times and simultaneously

increases the quality of pressed parts. This results

in top-quality evaluations of the results with

information on the diameter, position and form of

the part feature down to the nearest micrometer.

EagleEye Navigator turns your measuring machine

into production equipment.


22

EagleEye Navigator is based on a very simple principle of physics: triangulation. This states that all elements of a triangle can be calculated if two angles and a side of the triangle are known.
