Nikon Metrology announces the release of its easy-to-use intelligent Portable 3D Measuring System, the P3D. Measuring a product’s performance and design has become increasingly important, not only for research & development, but for production and quality control. The compact P3D NC-2323S is easy to carry and can be operated with a push of a button and without a computer. Unlike 3D measuring systems currently in use, it does not require professional expertise or technical knowledge to operate. With its intelligent functions, portability, and immediacy, it is ideally suited for quick, on-site measurements, such as those required on the automotive production floor.
Key Features
1. Easy operation
The simple GUI* allows first-time users immediate and intuitive operation. Capture 3D measuring data by simply moving the lens over an object and pressing the shutter button.. The projection system directs a laser beam onto a micro-mirror, made using a semiconductor micromachining technique, in order to project an optical pattern onto the object.*Graphical User Interface
2. Small, lightweight and intelligent
The compact body includes a sensor, operator and controller; enabling users to check the data immediately and conduct simple measurements. The P3D has been made small, light and energy efficient using the newly developed MEMS* projector and laser source.Moreover, it works with both an AC adaptor and a battery, enabling use on production floors where available power sources are limited*MEMS: Micro Electro Mechanical System
3. PC coordination
The newly developed P3D Viewer software meets a number of requirements, including data backup, 3D data reconstruction under different conditions, checking and editing, 3D data stitching and 3D printer coordination.
