Main Features

1. User-Desired Workspace

Interactive functioning docking panes can be added and removed simply by accessing any of the menus in the AutoMeasure software, and then individually moved to any area of the computer screen. Multi-user configurations can be saved and reloaded dependent on the desires of the operator.

                 



2. CAD Interface Off-Line Teaching Support Program: NEXIV Virtual AutoMeasure

This program enables CAD data to be read into the Virtual Video Window on a separate computer, allowing the operator to use NEXIV's teaching program with the same operational procedures as on the online computer. This eliminates the
necessity of using the actual workpiece during teaching
sessions and lets the NEXIV system concentrate on
automatic measurement for increased productivity.

  • Supports IGES, DXF, DMIS, NC files, Gerber, and Excellon.
  • The Virtual Video Window enables the operator to confirm the current field of view based on CAD data.
  • Same operational procedures as the NEXIV AutoMeasure.
  • Manual or one-click automated programming.
  • Possible to combine programs with Macro steps,  such as Line Width Measure and Multi Pattern Search.




3. Online CAD Interface Program

By importing CAD data (IGES, DXF, Gerber, and Excellon) of a workpiece, the operator can display graphics in the CAD graphic window on NEXIV VMR AutoMeasure. This facilitates efficiency in teaching and shortens working time. 

  • The operator can move the stage to the desired   position by double-clicking the appropriate position within the input workpiece.
  • This function makes it possible to create a teaching file automatically from CAD feature data on NEXIV VMR AutoMeasure.



4. Easy Selection of Desired Edges by Eliminating Dust and Burrs

Some workpieces contain multiple edges within a given caliper, or their contrast is too low, making edge detection extremely difficult. This function graphically profiles the contrasts of the image within the caliper using a multi-gray-level scale, enabling the operator to select any one of a number of edges.

                     



Selection of the desired edge is simple: click the appropriate buttons in the edge selection menu and adjust a threshold level using the mouse.
