NORTH KINGSTOWN, RI, USA, Jul 24, 2023 – Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division announced the launch of OPTIV Scope, an innovative vision Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) that simplifies quality inspection across industries. OPTIV Scope combines efficiency, accuracy, precision and ease of use enabling businesses to save time and reduce the costs of quality inspection. The system is ideal for inspecting high volumes of parts with similar shapes.

Speed is of the essence in today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, and OPTIV Scope is designed for the challenge. With its ability to simultaneously measure multiple parts in seconds at the click of a button, OPTIV Scope eliminates the time-consuming process of manual part alignment before each measurement, allowing machine tool operators and quality professionals to focus on their critical tasks and maximize productivity.

Accuracy and precision are at the core of OPTIV Scope’s capabilities. With accuracy of up to ± 0.7 microns, OPTIV Scope provides reliable and repeatable measurement data, independent of the operator, at the press of a button.

“Hexagon is committed to empowering manufacturing teams with cutting-edge measurement solutions that optimise efficiency and enhance productivity,” said Joerg Deller, general manager of stationary metrology devices and machine tool measurement at Hexagon. “OPTIV Scope completes our multi-sensor lineup, offering an entry-level, easy and precise machine that streamlines high-volume measurement for machine tool operators and quality professionals alike, saving time and costs.”

OPTIV Scope is available in six models with varying work volumes and camera resolutions, with a maximum 300 x 200 mm field of view. The system ensures comprehensive coverage of dimensioned features on a part, minimising the need for multiple measurements and improving workflow efficiency. Equipped with a double telecentric optical lens with a large depth of field, the system offers reliable edge detection with automatic focus. It captures sharp and clear images, even in complex measurement tasks.

OPTIV Scope caters to a broad range of industries and diverse manufacturing applications. Its versatility makes it an indispensable tool across sectors such as electronics, injection moulding, low-voltage electrical appliances, mobile phone accessories, printed circuit boards, medical equipment and many more. No matter the application, OPTIV Scope provides accurate, repeatable measurements and streamlines processes.

The new OPTIV Scope machines are available for immediate order in Korea, ASEAN, Pacific, India and Japan – visit our web product section or contact your local Hexagon representative for more information.
