Coordinate

THANKS to the low trigger force of Leitz’s
measurement head of up to 0.005 N, no
scratch marks or any other damage are
caused to the part during inspection.
Typically the device is most useful when
measuring coated lenses or highly polished,
high-precision copper, titanium or aluminium
parts. In general whenever the inspected
parts have delicate or reflective surfaces
and require to be accurately measured
using tactile sensors.
From now on, the Leitz Infinity will
also have vision metrology capability.
The LSP-S4 or LSP-S4 ultra low force
simply automatically replaces its stylus with
a Precitec chromatic white light sensor
(CWS).
The optical chromatic white light
sensor is based on the chromatic confocal
measurement technique. The advantages of
this proven visual measurement procedure:
successful precise measurements –
whether the surface is inclined, reflective
or dispersive. High axial resolution is also
available for measuring complex structures.
The sensor is therefore ideal for complex
applications such as measuring glass or
plastic lenses, surfaces and profiles. The
high-precision optical sensor excels in
particular because it is not affected by
variable ambient light.
But the big changes to the Leitz Infinity
have not been confined to the field of
sensors. The additional machine size also
offers more flexibility. As well as the existing
machine size of 1,200 x 1,000 x 700mm (X x
Y x Z), a new series with dimensions 1,200
x 1,000 x 600mm will soon be available. The
new model can be used in measuring rooms
with lower ceiling heights.
The Leitz brand as part of Hexagon
Metrology stands for high accuracy coordinate
measuring machines, gear inspection centres
and probes. Leitz measurement systems
master quality assurance tasks equally well
both in metrology labs as well as on the
shop floor. The development and production
are located in Wetzlar, Germany. For more
than 30 years Leitz has been offering its
customers the best innovative measurement
technology available. The primary goal
remains offering modern solutions for
demanding measurement tasks. Hexagon
