Analytik, leading suppliers of innovative analytical instrumentation to the UK and Ireland, report on developments in the uses for multispectral imaging from Videometer.

Olympus has introduced its OLYMPUS Stream software for optimising industrial analysis using a microscope. Built-in as part of the system, the instant Extended Focal Imaging (EFI) and manual Multiple Image Alignment (MIA) functions are powerful features that expand the range of imaging possibilities available, while significantly simplifying and speeding up the process.

Steinbichler Optotechnik GmbH, the worldwide leading supplier of optical measuring and sensor technology, presents the new integrated photogrammetry for the overall acquisition of 3D reference points, with which complex 3D digitalisation projects can now be handled even more efficiently.

Metrologic Group, developers of Metrolog 3D inspection software for co-ordinate measuring machines (CMM), have released details of a technology that will deliver increased productivity of any CNC CMM, irrespective of make, size or model.

The optimization of complex processes not only in industrial fabrication but in research and development provides important competitive advantages. Detailed, clear high-speed video recordings guarantee the secure analysis of both - fast and sporadic and long-lasting events. The combination of highly modern high-speed long-term recording with robust, mobile systems and ease of use opens up a number of heretofore unused application options. That ensures the fast amortization of the investment.

The new ATOS Compact Scan provides accurate scans with detailed resolution at high speeds. This 3D scanner combines the latest ATOS Blue Light Technology and software into a compact design with an affordable price.

UK agent for Swiss Metrology manufacturer Sylvac, Bowers Metrology has launched a range of advanced, shopfloor-proof Sylvac digital indicators. Available with measuring capacities of 12.5mm and 25mm and a choice of 0.01mm and 0.001mm resolutions, the S_Dial WORK indicators have a repeatability specification of 0.002mm.

The latest addition to Geomagic’s Qualify 3D inspection software product line , Geomagic Qualify Probe, is able to work with a broad range of hard probe precision measurement devices from hardware partners such as FARO, Creaform, Hexagon, Nikon and many others. Users can use touch probes, portable CMM arms and similar equipment to quickly measure physical parts and compare them with their CAD models to determine manufacturing quality.
