OPTODYNE'S MCV-2002
Linear and Angular Machine
Calibration
Instrument calibrates CNC machine tools, CMM's
(Coordinate
Measuring Machines), and
other precision measurement machines and stages.
Angular, straightness and flatness measurements can be made "onthe-fly". The unique dual
beam design provides a
rapid means to measure the surface
flatness of surface
plates, optical tables, machine tools, and
bearing guides. OPTODYNE'S
machine calibration instruments are
based on our
proprietary and patented Laser Doppler Displacement
Meter (LDDMTM)
technology. The total system is
compact providing easy,
convenient storage and transporting. Easy set-up procedures reduce overall machine
calibration time, especially where multiple axes are involved. This, coupled
with a modest initial investment,
provides continual savings. The MCV-2002 dual beam system design
provides the user a simple, easy-to-operate angular and linear capability in a
single instrument. It is
like "having two interferometers in one".
One beam collects the angular data
while the other beam monitors the linear
position. The user friendly software, running on a laptop or notebook computer, collects and analyzes this data. The data
can then be displayed on screen or printed
in tabular or graphic form.
