Optimax MII Ltd, is the Bruker Alicona µCMM, a purely optical co-ordinate measuring machine innovation, described as ‘a breakthrough in precision die measurement’. The spectrum of measurable surfaces includes all common industrial materials and composites, including plastics, PCD, CFRP, ceramics, chrome and silicon.
Having already been embraced by leading die makers, the µCMM has the capability to scan profiles and GD&T parameters with unprecedented precision, measuring down to the nanometre range, all while assessing surface roughness and edge breaks. It combines the advantages of tactile coordinate measuring technology and optical surface measuring technology.
The µCMM boasts unparalleled precision with its ability to capture comprehensive, high-density surface measurements, and give end users new insights that were once considered unachievable. It also offers the option to create a digital twin and to fully automate simple or more complex tasks.
Users can bid farewell to discrepancies between 2-D drawings and 3-D reality as Alicona’s products provide direct integration of 3-D information from 2-D drawings to CAD files.
Trusted by industry leaders such as Fritz Stepper GmbH & Co. KG, TE Connectivity, and HAILTEC GmbH, Alicona's micro-precision die solution is now available as a standard product, ready to enhance any machine shop’s operations.
