Solution Proposal from Mitutoyo

Have You Considered Measuring Minute Shapes that were Previously Unattainable with a Coordinate Measuring Machine?

　 -Vision measuring machine equipped with a scanning probe　 MiSCAN Vision System

Microfabrication technology has advanced rapidly in recent years, driven by innovations in automotive electrification and sensing systems essential for autonomous driving.

Are you facing challenges in evaluating microfabrication despite successful prototyping?

Mitutoyo offers tailored solutions to address these challenges.

Challenges:

• A lack of suitable styluses for measurement, deformation of the shape during fracture inspection, and the absence of a dedicated microshape evaluation machine.

• The need to evaluate precision-molded resin products without deformation caused by stylus contact pressure.

• The desire to efficiently obtain finer point cloud data for accurate contour matching between design values and workpieces.

Microfabrication Evaluation with a Minimal Stylus Diameter of 0.125 mm

Traditional Coordinate Measuring Machines, with a minimum probe diameter of 0.5 mm, often struggle to evaluate microfabrication. Is this a challenge you face in your precision measurements?

The MiSCAN Vision System offers a solution with its micro stylus, featuring a diameter as small as 0.125 mm. This innovation enables efficient scanning measurement of microfabrication, such as precision micro gears with a module size of 1 or less, which were previously difficult to evaluate.

Additionally, the MiSCAN Vision System operates with ultra-low contact pressure—approximately 1 mN or less. This allows precise measurement of delicate resin moldings, like lens barrels, with minimal deformation caused by contact pressure. Experience a new level of precision and efficiency in microfabrication evaluation.

Applications of the MiSCAN Vision System

It is ideal for determining processing conditions during prototype development of precision fine gears, lenses, lens barrels, precision molds, and precision mechanical parts.
