Flexpoint
A New Generation of Large Format Multisensor CMMs
FlexPoint represents the latest evolution in multisensor coordinate measuring machines developed by OGP. This cutting-edge system incorporates a distinctive blend of sensors and CAD-based programming to address a diverse range of dimensional measurement challenges.
Available in sizes ranging from 7.7.6 to 12.30.10, FlexPoint systems incorporate VersaFlex, a patented sensor array that enables the use of up to three sensors simultaneously through an articulating head. This includes the reliable scanning probe, telecentric optics, and the high-precision 1 μm accuracy TeleStar interferometric laser. Notably, users can switch between these sensors without the need for time-consuming exchanges or constant recalibration, minimizing downtime.
The elimination of time-consuming tool changes is made possible by having all sensors ready for immediate use. The CAD programmable articulation of VersaFlex™ ensures optimal positioning and alignment of all sensors. This capability is particularly beneficial for efficiently measuring parts that would typically require multiple machines for comprehensive inspection. As a result, the FlexPoint system enhances both accuracy and speed.
The high-speed, air-bearing bridge transport system is designed for the factory floor environment. It incorporates active thermal compensation, making it well-suited for efficient and precise measurements in real-world manufacturing settings.
