VISIUS forms the new entry into Hexagon’s portfolio of optical coordinate measuring machines and brings automated high-speed 2D measurement to your quality control process.
The solution combines fast non-contact vision measuring and reliable accuracy with easy-to-use software in a versatile measuring system at low costs.
VISIUS is the ideal solution for price-sensitive customers seeking to cover basic dimensional measuring applications in environments where efficiency is a key productivity driver.
Solid machine stand
VISIUS comes equipped with an integrated machine stand made of steel, giving the machine a secure stand and providing an ergonomic working height.
Rugged granite construction
Machine base, fixed Z column and integral XY cross-table are made of granite. Inherently stable and temperature resistant: To deliver consistently reliable measurement results, VISIUS is built to withstand typical ambient conditions that can occur close to production environments.
XY cross-table design
The XY cross table is the ideal solution for positioning the measurement object along the X and Y axes with high dynamics and precision towards the measuring sensors. it also excels with its compact design.
Swift CMM relocation
Swivel castors enable the machine to be quickly relocated on-site with no need for additional means of transport.
Basic configuration
VISIUS comes in a simple all-in-one configuration and in three machine sizes. The basic version comprises, as standard, the non-contact vision sensor as the primary measuring sensor and an overview camera for easy part navigation and visualisation. Also included in the package is the easy-to-use metrology software Metus. VISIUS is calibrated to ISO 10360 standards.
Machine size
VISIUS is available in three machine sizes to serve specific inspection requirements:
All versions are optimised for the smallest possible footprint, ensuring easy integration into existing manufacturing environments with limited floor space.
Vision sensor
The vision sensor is the primary measuring sensor on VISIUS and offers the fastest way to measure very small features or sensitive and thin parts with high accuracy. In addition, the vision sensor’s autofocus function automatically focuses on features at different heights on the part and enables precise distance measurements in the Z axis.
Camera sensor for non-contact high-speed measurement
- of the smallest and closely toleranced features
- of sensitive and flat parts that cannot be touched
- of dense clusters of intricate features
- Digital high-resolution CMOS colour camera with Gigabit Ethernet interface
- 6x motorised CNC zoom for flexible adjustment of magnification and resolution
- Variable illumination with coaxial LED top light, 6-ring/8-segment LED ring light and telecentric LED back light
Overview camera
Ease of operation with safe human-machine interaction
VISIUS comes equipped with an integrated overview camera, which provides a live Navigation View of the workpiece on the machine stage right in the Metus GUI. This allows operators to quickly locate a part in the measuring area and intuitively point-and-click navigate the vision sensor to any desired measuring position on the part. Usability is enhanced as there is no need to use the joystick. Programming tasks are simplified and accelerated by eliminating time-consuming trial-and-error approaches of the operator during part navigation and sensor positioning.
Metrology software Metus
Metus emoves complexity from measurement workflows, reducing time and costs associated with quality and process control tasks in industrial applications.
Easy to learn and use:
- Simplified vision measurement workflows, streamlined to instantly provide results
- Clear screen layout for direct access to common programming, evaluation and reporting functions
- Flat learning curve and reduced training need through optimal user guidance during operation
Powerful image processing with trusted edge detection algorithms
Real-time result reporting and statistics
Multisensor support for touch probe, chromatic white light sensor (CWS) and rotary indexing table
Seamless integration with Hexagon’s AI-based automated surface inspection tool
ISO 10360 compliance
Ensure your measuring machines are up to the task and adhere to international standards for consistency, reliability and comparability.
Unlike other systems on the entry-level market, VISIUS offers ISO 10360 standard-compliant measurement accuracy, ensuring traceability of measurement results and guaranteeing the reliability of measurements in the entire measurement volume of the machine.
