KEYENCE CORPORATION’s Post

We recently purchased a new Image Dimension Measurement System to assist with our product inspections before they shipped out to customers! This is the Keyence series IM-X, which has capabilities for high precision measurement for up to 1000 parts at once!  For Torr Scientific, the system is particularly useful for inspecting precision components used in vacuum applications. We can create custom programs to measure and compare the values for specified sections of a component against nominal values and with specified tolerances across 2D dimensions and non-contact height measurements.  This machine can then generate detailed reports for our team regarding these measurements and if the part passes through inspection.   There are various setting for the lighting and cameras, including back-lighting which works much like a shadowgraph for the most accurate 2-dimensional measurement. For the high accuracy edge detection, the machine contains high precision camera, covering a small surface area, and the lighting can switch from white to green. This improves performance because the wavelength for green is useful for providing high brightness contrast. Laser light can also be used to calculate the depth, calculated based on wavelength from the reflections.  Thank you to the KEYENCE CORPORATION team for arranging a visit to get us started on getting our new machine set up!
