Surface Texture & Contour Measuring Instruments

Preparation and measurement in a short time with the fastest drive in the class

Significantly improved drive speed reduces the time for approaching workpieces in manual mode, creating CNC programs and drive during CNC measurement. This improves efficiency throughout the inspection process, from preparation to measurement. In addition, by using a wide-range hybrid detector (for SURFCOM NEX 200 only), there is no need to measure surface texture and contour shape separately, and necessary precise alignment before measuring the surface texture of inclined or curved surfaces can be skipped. This means inspections can be performed with minimal effort in the shortest period of time.

The world’s only linear motor drive machine that can measure ultra-low vibration and operate at 20±5 degrees Celsius.

SURFCOM NEX inherits the linear motor drive unit, a patented technology of ACCRETECH, from a conventional SURFCOM NEX. An ultra-low vibration drive mechanism reduces noise caused by vibration and provides high-accuracy measurement results. Moreover, by offsetting the impact of temperature change on the scale in real time, accuracy can be assured over a wide temperature range of 20±5 degrees Celsius. Reliable measurement results are obtainable even in environments where temperature control is difficult.a

Tradition Developed over Years and Innovative New Technology

Achieving high levels of versatility, efficiency, and reliability

Extremely high-speed driving enables shorter tact time

X-axis (horizontal): 100 mm/s, 1.6 times faster than conventional instruments
C-axis (vertical): 50 mm/s, 5 times faster than conventional instruments (Patented)

  • The column is equipped with a newly developed one-way clutch and brake
    Vertical movement of the drive section adjusted to the same load, which has significantly increased driving speed and acceleration.
  • Higher measurement efficiency for individual workpieces, and shorter tact time for automated continuous measurement combined with robots

    The linear motor tracing driver minimizing vibration and achieving highly accurate measurement. (Patented)

    • Non-contact and low-vibration driving allows for low noise and highly accurate measurement.
    • The simple structure without a gear box or ball screws can maintain long-term and stable high accuracy.
    Selectable monitor size and position
    • A 17″ monitor as standard or about 24″ monitor as optional can be selected.
    • A monitor can be installed on either side of the stand (DX type)
    It offers flexibility so that a dedicated detector for surface texture or contour profile can be installed later
    • Supporting multiple sensors so that you can select a detector for intended use
    • It can be used as a multifunction instrument with more than one detector combined
    • Since other detectors can be installed later, you can first purchase the instrument with minimum specification and later add detectors as necessary to expand the function. As such it is very flexible

    Contour Detector (General Purpose)

    Contour Detector (High Accuracy)

    Real-time control of the driving speed
    A new type of operation panel for safe measurement
    • Newly equipped with an override dial to control the driving speed between 0 and 100% of the maximum value on a real-time basis
    • Middle point, which is useful for CNC programming, can be registered with one button
