Measuring probes: flexible and high-accuracy measures

Picture of Measuring probes
Flexible and great precision thanks to the VAST XTR Gold probe VAST XTR Gold from Carl Zeiss, enables flexible measures and measures of great precision in the field of industrial measurement and, consequently, increases significantly the productivity and flexibility for operators. Thanks to the rotary axis integrated, VAST XTR Gold flips probing system in direction to the surface that is being measured, and adjusts easily to complex parts, allowing virtually any position.

Until now, operators have had to choose between a process flexible articulating head the probe with passive scanning, not designed for maximum accuracy, or a fixed scanning head, which is more accurate but not as flexible. The VAST XTR Gold combines the best of both worlds. The key feature is its integrated swivel. For special applications, this value can be configured at any angle through the use of probing systems. The VAST XTR Gold is designed for longer and heavier probes up to 350 millimeters long and 500 grams of weight.

VAST Performance and VAST Navigator: the probe is compatible with the functions "Navigator" and "Performance". The VAST Navigator is an expert system that optimizes the speed of measurement with the desired precision. The VAST Performance feature to the tracer point scan contours of gear without sacrificing speed or accuracy as in the past. Both functions significantly increase efficiency.

Range of applications and high effectiveness for users users of this system benefit from the VAST XTR Gold probe at many levels. First, to save time because few configurations of probes and modifications, which can also save costs. Equipped with a standard fixed probe, the probe is ideal for parts with many surfaces and angular positions, such as those in boxes of gear for helicopters and locomotives. The VAST XTR Gold is also appropriate for symmetrically rotating parts, such as ventilation gear and turbines, such as those used for le wind power. It provides the flexibility users extra. Tracer point changes are eliminated and the optimized use of the machine range increases efficiency and ensures higher precision.

The VAST XTR Gold is currently available for the following systems ZEISS: ACCURA II, GageMax, PRISMO and MMZ T II.
