LK Metrology will join Nikon Metrology in its booth to feature its Altera S multi-purpose, compact coordinate measurement machines (¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ês). All the company’s ¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ês will be fitted with the company’s Camio8 multi-sensor ¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ê software and Renishaw Modus software. The displayed Altera S will be equipped with a Nikon L100 laser scanner.
The Altera S is a compact, multi-purpose ¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ê with advanced capabilities. The machine is multi-sensor ready, enabling the user to expand the capability of the ¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ê as requirements change without the need for expensive controller upgrades.
Camio8 software’s productivity benefits are said to enable manufacturers to focus on accelerating lead times and improving product quality while reducing costs. The software’s interoperability across ¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ê platforms, sensor technology and manufacturing sites is said to guarantee longevity of investment in software and inspection programs.
Also on display is the Altera M high-speed, production-type ¸ßÅâÂÊÁùºÏ²Ê with probe and laser scanning for automotive and aerospace applications.
