Kestrel utilises Vision Engineering's patented optical projection
technology to provide a high resolution 2-axis non-contact
measuring microscope.
Kestrel is the first non-contact measuring system to combine
quality, accuracy, repeatability and optical performance,
with in-line speed and ease of use in one low investment
system.
High grade optics give superbly clear views of difficult,
dark and intricate surfaces, with lighting from 2 x
30W semicoaxially mounted spotlamps and 30W vertically
aligned substage illumination. Quick-change magnification
options are 10x : 20x : 50x (20x fitted as standard).
Accurate
and fast displacement measurement is achieved through
a high performance 3-plate aluminium stage giving 150mm
x 100mm measuring range, 1µm/10mm stage accuracy
and 4µm of system repeatability. The stage is
gimbal mounted and adjustable to ensure critical parallel
position between viewing head and stage plane.
The stage has factory completed non-linear error correction
calibration which ensures optimum accuracy and is traceable
to NPL/NAMAS/NIST standards for the purposes of ISO9000.
Kestrel comes complete with the multifunction QC-200 microprocessor,
providing easy representation of X, Y measurements,
both numerically and in graphic form. Results can be
printed via a parallel printer port.
Kestrel can also be linked to external accessories such as
digital camera or video/CCTV and has been designed
to give best optical performance, accuracy repeatability,
speed and ergonomics at an attractive price.
