Measure cutting tools optically in production...

… and extend tool life!

With the EdgeMaster you easily measure

- fast, contact less and in highest vertical and laterial resolution.
- positive- and negative bevels of cutting edges.
- chipping and form.

The EdgeMaster does not need a special housing and is insensitive to extraneous light, vibrations and fluctuation of temperature.

More on optical measurements of cutting tools.

Measure form deviations...

...of target geometry.

Compare the produced component with the according CAD data and

- measure form deviations.
- check where the produced component differs from the target reference geometry.
- verify nagged material via the measurement of height-, area- and volume differences to the target geometry.

More on optional measurement modules.

Measure standard tools and purpose-built tools...

… with a selection of grips.

Assure the exact measurement position of your components and
- position e.g. cutting tools fast and hassle-free.
- retain drills, milling cutters etc., for measuring bevels of cutting edges with high resolution.
- manually or automatically rotate thread tools and extend the form measurement.

More optional hardware: The roughness standard for verification of optical roughness measurements.

3d micro-coordinate measurement technique for roughness and form measurement

Alicona offers optical 3d surface measurement systems for quality assurance in research and production. Core competence is the measurement of roughness and form also across large measurement areas and volumes. The cutting edge measurement and the measurement of small radii and angles are typical applications. Focus-Variation, the core technique of the InfiniteFocus line, combines the traditional surface metrology and the micro coordinate measurement technology. This technology achieves traceable and repeatable results in highest resolution even in production.
