ViciVision’s Prima optical measurement series for turned parts is designed to simplify measurement. The company says it reduces programming learning time by 30%. It is also designed to transform part measurement by providing a more objective measurement system. The Prima optical measuring machines can streamline the process by simplifying steps, with no need for an operator manual. It features “Vivian,” a programming assistant to guide users step by step through the measurement process.

ViciVision also designs, manufactures and distributes a variety of other optical measuring machines for turned and ground parts. With these noncontact instruments, it is possible to take many measurements in a matter of seconds, such as static, geometric, thread, form or nut measurements.

The ViciVision M Series is designed for subcontracting and general turning. The M1 models are well suited to measure flank multi-spindle lathes or sliding head lathes, while M2 and M3 models work with small components to 900 × 140 mm.

The X series is specific for micromechanical components, watch parts and dental and biomedical screws.

The Techno series is designed for the automotive industry, including camshafts, turbines, constant velocity joints, transmission shafts, valves, pistons, crankshafts and more. It is a modular range that enables users to choose the most suitable measuring range between 20 different possibilities, starting with 300 × 40 mm up to 1,250 × 180 mm.
