3.1 Overview

The HDV500 is a large horizontal digital video system that includes a 500-millimeter (20 inch) of stage travel, 150 kilogram (330 pound) load capacity, and a large 1067 millimeter (42 inch) diagonal video monitor. The HDV system provides a uniquely designed interchangeable lens mounting system to a hi-resolution 5 mega-pixel digital video camera. In addition, the CNC- capable system includes the powerful MetLogix M3 vision metrology software with the M3 DXF/FOV option pack.

3.2 Features and Capabilities

Key features and capabilities of the HDV system include the following:

• Delivers a rugged system that is equally at home in a quality lab or on the shop floor. The housing is made of welded steel. The stage is made of machined nickel-plated steel and has two dovetail slots to allow the clamping of parts and fixtures. Maximum workload capacity is 150 kilograms (360 pounds). Linear glass scales provide 0.5 µm (0.00002 inches) of resolution to read stage motion. • Includes a 5-megapixel digital video camera that is available with a choice of three telecentric lenses for micron-level resolution and measurement distortion as low as 0.002% across the field of view (FOV) for accurate measurements. The system is also available with 6.5:1 zoom optics. The lenses are mounted by means of a bayonet fitting and can be changed by the user in a matter of seconds. • Includes a motorized CNC system, where motion and illumination are under computer control. Manual operation for setup and individual measurements is provided by means of a joystick. • Includes MetLogix M3 vision metrology software with the M3 DXF/FOV option pack. With this software, the HDV500 can import DXF CAD files over a network and make automatic 2D go-no-go comparisons to an engineering design by using video edge detection (VED), with no need for the screen overlays that would be required with an optical comparator.

• Easy to use operator controls including joystick, wireless keyboard and mouse, and 42-inch touch screen monitor.

• Optional CNC rotary stage that provides increased radial load stability and moment load rating.
