How to Measure Laser Cut Hypotubes with High resolution

Educational, VHX Integration, VK Integration, VR Integration / By

Laser Cut Hypotubes (LCHT) are used for many different medical procedures. Most LCHT features consist of small cut or drilled features that allow them to bend and navigate the human body. The inspection for the verification and validation of these small features is an important step in the LCHT’s manufacturing process. As the features shrink …

Height Sensors Resolve Microscope Focus Challenges

Educational, VHX Integration, VK Integration / By

Covering Keyence VK-X series scanning microscopes. Scanning microscopes can be difficult to optimize over large surface areas since their measurement depth of field is so small. If the surface you are trying to measure has a slight tilt to it, or if there are localized height differences across it, it will be hard to find …

Removing shadowing effects when using laser triangulation sensors

Educational, Mutlisensor / By

Shadowing occurs when the laser is blocked by a part surface while trying to return to the sensor head. The problem: Missing surface data The triangulation principle, such as the one used by laser measurement devices, often has a limitation when it comes to measuring surfaces with tall features. These tall features obstruct the outgoing …
