Optical Measuring System for Small Medical Parts



The VICI Vision MTL X5, available from OGP, is suitable for measuring tiny bio-mechanical turned parts.

Optical Gaging Products (OGP), a division of Quality Vision International (QVI), offers its VICI Vision MTL X5 Optical Measuring System to the medical manufacturing marketplace.

VICI Vision optical measuring systems are designed for fast and easy external dimensional profile measurements of cylindrical parts such as shafts, valves, screws and threaded inserts. The MTL X5 was specifically designed to measure small turned bio-mechanical components, including dental implants, bone screws and other medical device parts. Its high-resolution camera provides an enlarged image and is capable of resolving the intricate features typically inherent in small turned parts.

"MTL X5 system software enables automatic measurement of lengths, diameters, angles, radii, bevels and threads of even the smallest details," said a company spokesperson. "In addition, included software tools - such as thread analysis, compared radius and chamfer tools - are designed to facilitate measurement of challenging small features using simple programming techniques.

"MTL X5 is intuitive and easy to use, enabling operators to measure micro-parts without advanced knowledge or specialized training. Its software uses a simple point-and-click interface, allowing dozens of measurements to be obtained in a few seconds, enhancing measurement and manufacturing throughput and saving money in the long run. All measurement data is stored onboard for subsequent statistical reports and determination of production trends and/or obstacles. And MTL X5 is rugged, perfectly suited for use in most manufacturing environments."
