New range of accessories expand Mantis capabilities
A new range of accessories have increased the capabilities of the accomplished Mantis stereo viewer.
The articulated arm is an accessory for the Mantis, providing extended
reach for applications requiring additional flexibility.
 The episcopic illuminator for Mantis Elite
provides a solution for inspecting
components such as mechanical parts
where bore holes and complex internal /
external features require a concentration of illumination.
 The floor stand for Mantis Compact and
Mantis Elite is specifically designed for stereo
inspection where subjects are immobile or require a
standing position. Mobile and highly stable, the floor
stand provides a versatile option for Mantis operators.
Mantis Compact UV is a high definition
illumination option, ideal for UV inspection
applications ... read more
New LED Illuminator for Lynx
Designed specifically for the Lynx stereo dynascopic microscope*,
the new LED illuminator offers improved performance and longer
life, with a fraction of the running costs of conventional halogen
systems.
The latest generation of LEDs provide over 10,000 hours
of continuous viewing, reducing consumable and maintenance costs considerably. Additionally, the 14-point shadow-free ringlight provides brighter, whiter illumination with reduced heat and energy to the subject ... read more
Introducing Merlin 300 2-Axis Video Measuring System
Vision Engineering’s new Merlin video measuring system uses a powerful touch-screen
video microprocessor to provide amazing simplicity with high accuracy and
repeatability for a wide range of measuring applications. Merlin is so simple, operators can virtually 'plug and play'.
Whether taking simple single-feature, or multi-point video edge detection
measurements, the simplicity of Merlin allows consistent results to be obtained
no matter how many operators use the system ... read more
Independent Report on Lead-Free Production
Vision Engineering has produced an independent, informative report covering the issues involved with lead-free production.
This report describes how production processes are affected by the move away from lead solder and how this has influenced inspection criteria and defect types. What you will find included in the report are many colour images that clearly show how the new solder joints and defects will appear.
The change to lead-free production has affected all manufacturers in the electronics industry. This report highlights some of the issues that manufacturers will face ... read more |
