Example 2: On-Screen Navigation Navigation Can Be Simple... C.A.M.S. operators frequently comment on the exceptional user-friendliness of the system. The on-screen navigation for systems with motorized X/Y tables is a good example. The arrow buttons are a simple, universal navigation mode that you can use to move anywhere over the sample for any type of operation. Push a button and the view moves in that direction over the surface of the sample. You can select to move in smaller or larger steps. Even complicated automatic traverse test routines can be exceptionally simple, since you don’t even...

C.A.M.S. System-6

Accurate. Consistent. Repeatable. Ideal for a Wide Range of Conditions and Environments. Achieving good accuracy and repeatability are more complex than simply obtaining good results on perfectly produced test blocks using a technician at a heightened level of attention. The C.A.M.S. system can operate exceptionally well on a variety of test surface conditions, and with the range of surface leveling and rounding at the edge of a sample, that is typically encountered on mounted test samples. One signiciant advantage of the C.A.M.S. systems is its lack of contrast dependence. Shading correction...

SIMPLE OPERATION. SERVICE AND SUPPORT YOU CAN COUNT ON. The C.A.M.S. system is unique among automatic-traverse microhardness systems. It is the only auto-traverse system built from the ground up for hardness testing - as opposed to being an image analysis machine which also does microhardness. The software is well adapted, having been developed over a period of time, with many enhancements based on customer feedback. Plus, the software is completely written in-house. Changes and modifications can be easily accommodated. Technical support is fast and more substantial. Consider it software insurance...
