Non Contact Measurement Equipment

Kestrel

Kestrel

  • High accuracy, low investment system
  • 2-axis (X, Y) measurements
  • Maximum stage size 150mm x 100mm standard stage
  • Max. magnification 50x
  • Data processing through 2-axis readout, multifunction microprocessor
  • Digital and video camera capability

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.
