White Light Measurement System

Hexagon Metrology has introduced the WLS qFLASH, a compact, white light measuring system that uses blue light technology.

It is a noncontact stereo vision system designed to capture 3-D measurements on the shop floor. It is portable and creates reports and digitizes acquired data on the spot for analysis or direct CAD comparison.

It can be used in a hand-held manner or on a mobile pedestal.

This measuring system is wrapped in a carbon-fiber optical housing and employs high-power advanced blue LED illumination. It uses patented stereo vision technology and 2-D image processing to measure surfaces, closed features, and edge lines.

With low sensitivity to machinery vibration, industrial light, and temperature changes, this system enables manufacturers of small to mediumsize parts to measure surfaces and features in shop floor environments.

Shiny objects and surfaces also can be measured without treatment.

The product is paired with the company’s proprietary CoreView measurement software suite.
