Handles large parts normally accommodated only by larger, more costly metrology systems!

Onyx Benchtop Automatic Optical Measurement System is accurate, strong, versatile and easy to use. This compact machine handles large parts normally accommodated only by larger, more costly metrology systems.

Onyx was designed using the latest solid modeling and Finite Element Analysis to achieve maximum system rigidity. Designed to fit on a benchtop, Onyx is secure on a stable, cast base.

The Onyx is powered by the AutoCheck and easy to use Basic-X Measurement Software. Basic-X was designed specifically for video measurement systems with motorized stages. With an extensive array of measurement tools, including the AutoFocus Motorized Zoom, intelligent edge detection, user friendly icons and a point and click interface, Basic-X makes it simple for everyone to get accurate, repeatable measurements. AutoCheck includes Windows 98. Windows NT or Windows 2000 are optional.

*Applies to thermally stable system in rated environment, maximum zoom lens setting, and evenly distributed 5 kg load.

Depending on load distribution, accuracy at maximum rated load may be less than standard accuracy.

XY axis artifact: QVI 25 intersection grid reticle at standard measuring plane.   The standard measuring plane is defined as a plane that is 1" off of the work table.

Z axis artifact: QVI step gage. E1=Z measurement accuracy combines Autofocus and Z axis positioning capabilities.
