Hawk Systems with QC-300 Video Microprocessor

System Summary

High repeatable accuracy, 3-axis (X, Y, Z) measurements

Hawk systems with QC-300 are the first measuringmicroscopes to offer the options of both optical and videomeasurement, providing users with unrivalled flexibility with the ability to perform both higher volume batch videomeasurement routines, or high accuracy opticalmeasurements for difficult-to-view, one-off or critical parts.Hawk with QC-300 utilises Vision Engineering’s patentedDynascope™ technology together with an advancedtouch-screen video microprocessor to provide optimisedmeasurement, whatever the component, making it ideal for high accuracy quality control routines with a wide variety ofcomponent features.

Patented optical image clearly defines edges, offering superb resolution and contrast Integrated video professional camera enables both video and optical measurement, for complete flexibility High precision and large capacity measuring stage options Powerful and intuitive touch-screen video microprocessor Modular and flexible system for future upgrade Worldwide training, service & support

Optimised Measurement Routines

From manual, single-feature operation to higherthroughput video edge detection measurements, Hawk with QC-300 optimises measurement routines todeliver accuracy and simplicity for a wide range ofmeasuring applications. Users even have the ability to switch between video and optical measurement within the same measuring routine.

Touch-Screen Video Microprocessor

In addition to optical measurement techniques, theQC-300 video microprocessor includes an array ofvideo measurement tools, including simple crosshair measurement; offset crosshair for difficult-to-findedges; manual or automatic single point detectionand multi-point video edge detection. QC-300 features a high resolution colour video touch-screenwith intuitive interface and is ideal for measuringcommon component features, such as circles, angles, lines, slots, arcs and distances.

Precision Measuring Stage

Hawk with QC-300 is available with a range of highspecification, high performance measuring stage options,providing a measuring range from 150mm x 150mm (6” x 6”) up to 400mm x 300mm (16" x 12"). Every measuring stage hasfactory-completed non-linear error correction (NLEC) calibration toensure optimum accuracy, which is traceable to national standards for the purposes of ISO9000. Combined with 0.5µm resolutionmeasuring professional encoders, this provides a system repeatability of up to 2µmfor complete confidence in your results.*
