QV APEX Pro – Best-selling CNC Vision Measuring System

QV Apex Pro is a CNC Vision Measuring System. This is a superior model of QUICK VISION, which is equipped with the StrobeSnap function as standard, enabling high-speed measurement.

Features

  • This is a superior model of QUICK VISION, which is equipped with the StrobeSnap function as standard, enabling high-speed measurement.
  • The STREAM function is an optional upgrade to improve productivity by up to five times.
  • The image auto focus of QUICK VISION Pro can measure the height of mirror-finished surfaces through to rough surfaces, such as machined surfaces and plastic molded parts, with high accuracy and at high speed under any conditions. Image auto focus speed has been improved by about 30% compared with conventional models.
  • Height change in a workpiece can be tracked in the Z-axis direction quickly by laser with the Tracking Auto Focus (TAF) function. StrobeSnap and STREAM allow it to perform effectively, resulting in a significant increase of measurement throughput.
  • The Point From Focus (PFF) function enables the 3D measurement with multi cross-section images. Scanning the object by auto focusing the objective lens can capture multiple cross-section images (image contrasts) at different heights. Thus obtaining 3D shape data from such images.

 

StrobeSnap

All the QUICK VISION Pro models are equipped with a strobe light, and the newly developed vision measuring function “StrobeSnap” delivers measurements with both high throughput and high accuracy. Regardless of the continuity of measuring positions, measuring time can be shortened by about 35 to 45% for most measurement samples. Due to the excellent compatibility with part programs allows a part program to be created for high-speed measurement with ease.

QV APEX Pro

 

Tracking Auto Focus (TAF)
Laser emitted from the objective lens enables automatic focusing. The system automatically keeps the object in focus according to its shape, eliminating the task of focus adjustment and increasing
measurement throughput.

 

STREAM function (optional)
The STREAM function provides an amazingly high throughput, due to the non-stop measurement where the camera motion and the strobe light are synchronized.
It can shorten measuring time more than StrobeSnap on account of continuous element measurement as shown in the following conceptual image of measurement.
