CORE D is a 5-axis, optical CMM system which is ideal for the measurement of small to medium turbine blades, medical implants, or any other parts with similar characteristics of polished, reflective surfaces and sharp edges.
The characteristics above are measured with a unique, “Double-eye” sensor which ensures good point accessibility and even collects reliable data with the axis of the light beam up to 85ᵒ to the surface normal.
The new generation of CORE D has an automatic cover that closes during the measurement cycle ensuring perfect optical, thermal, and clean conditions. The CORE D is shop-hardened, designed to be robot loaded, and occupies a small footprint.
The CORE D can also be calibrated to ISO standards just like a CMM.
