USE IN PRACTISE - Control Check

The main advantages of using Micro-Vu in weapons production:

High measurement accuracy – submicron resolution ensures that even the most demanding requirements are met
Multisensor measurement – combination of optics, touch probe and laser enables comprehensive 3D inspection in one measuring program
A non-contact method – minimizes the risk of damage to the measured parts and enables the measurement of soft or fragile materials
Automation and traceability – easy integration into production processes, possibility of automatic reporting and data traceability
Easy programming – Intuitive InSpec software significantly reduces the time needed to create measurement programs

Accurate component measurement is crucial in weapons manufacturing to ensure the reliability, functionality and safety of the resulting products. Micro-Vu optical measurement systems represent a modern solution for checking the dimensional accuracy of a wide range of mechanical parts - from small-caliber components to complex optical-mechanical assemblies.

Using non-contact measurement technology and a sophisticated combination of optics, touch and laser probes, Micro-Vu systems can quickly and precisely verify complex geometries with high repeatability. They are ideal for inspecting parts with tight tolerances, such as those commonly found in rifle barrels, sights and weapon assemblies.

Micro-Vu machines are a powerful tool for quality control in all phases of weapon system production - from piece inspection to 100% automated inspection in mass production.

Typical Micro-Vu applications in the arms and defense industry:

Benefits of using Micro-Vu in the nuclear sector:

Accuracy in micrometers – measurement of critical dimensions of fuel cells, valve components and sealing elements with high repeatability
Non-contact and non-destructive method – ideal for checking sensitive materials (e.g. zirconium, nickel alloys, graphite...)
Complete measurement traceability – including automatically generated protocols and the possibility of connecting to quality database systems
Resistance to harsh operating conditions – machines can handle measurements in shielded and controlled environments
Deployment flexibility – suitable for both laboratory control and operations requiring high throughput and automation

The nuclear industry places extreme demands on the quality, reliability and documentation of every manufactured part. Micro-Vu optical measurement systems provide the highly accurate and repeatable measurements necessary for component manufacturing and inspection in environments where even a small deviation can have major consequences.

Micro-Vu utilizes multi-sensor technology – optical measurement supplemented by a touch probe, laser or rotary axis – to enable full 3D inspection of complex parts, including those with very fine structures or reflective surfaces. The instruments are designed with an emphasis on accuracy, long-term stability and compatibility with qualification requirements in the nuclear industry (e.g. ASME, ISO 17025).

Micro-Vu offers a robust and accurate solution for inspecting critical components in the nuclear industry – from research and development, through production, to long-term condition monitoring.

Micro-Vu machines are successfully used in companies operating in the following areas:

The main advantages of using Micro-Vu in the aerospace industry:

Micron precision – suitable for measuring blades, grooves, milled and machined parts
A non-contact method – non-destructive testing of aerospace alloys, thin-walled parts and sensitive surfaces
Multi-sensor technology – one device covers the measurement of metals, composites and plastics – optically and tactilely
Automation and measurement protocols – including outputs for FAI, SPC analysis and full traceability
Robust construction – stable measurement even in demanding operating conditions of production halls

Control without compromise – from turbines to interior elements

There is no space for error in the aerospace industry. Every component, whether it is an engine part, structural part or interior element, must meet strict geometric and quality standards – often according to AS9100, NADCAP or EN9102. Micro-Vu optical measuring instruments provide accurate, traceable and repeatable inspection of even the most complex shapes and surfaces, even non-contact and fast.

Micro-Vu systems combine optics, touch, and laser in a single device, enabling comprehensive 3D measurement of metal, composite, and plastic parts – ideal in environments where documentation, repeatability, and audit readiness are key.

Multi-sensor technology (optics, touch, laser) – suitable for inspecting parts with different materials and geometries in one step
Measurement automation and traceability – generation of measurement protocols for audit purposes, traceability
Save time thanks to fast batch inspection – perfect for validation and control in the production process

Micron precision for patient safety and product quality

The healthcare industry demands the highest levels of accuracy, traceability and compliance with regulatory standards. Products such as implants, instruments and disposables must undergo rigorous inspection. Micro-Vu optical measuring machines offer the ideal combination of accuracy, speed and non-destructive measurement – all while meeting the requirements of various standards.

Thanks to multi-sensor technology, Micro-Vu machines enable comprehensive 3D measurements of sensitive, complex and miniature parts – whether surgical instruments, injection systems or orthopedic implants.
