The PC-based vision measuring system provides faster, more accurate measurements for the MF and MF-U microscopes. The automatic edge-detection tools and various macro icons on the Vision Unit System allows measurement on MF and MF-U microscopes in one easy step. To make measurements even simpler and faster, a series of measuring options can be performed using just one screen display. When the vision unit is used in conjunction with a motorized Z-axis, one can perform one-click autofocus resulting in, on average, a 45% reduction in focus time.

• The graphics and measurement navigation functions facilitate operation
• Image data input/storage function
• Measurement results are output in CVS format. This lets the user generate an inspection table in MS-Excel
• Allows the tolerance zone measurement of measurement results and various types of statistical processing for each item
• Combined use with the focus pilot provides high-accuracy height measurements (Patent pending)
• A series of measuring operations can be performed using just one screen display
• The auto-brightness control function reproduces the type and degree of illumination required. (This function is limited to the MF/MF-U series.)
