Used NIKON V-12A #293622818 for sale

NIKON V-12A is an optical comparator, or profile projector, used for precision measurement and inspection in manufacturing and engineering operations. It combines advanced optics with a large-screen observation equipment, offering a wide range of measurement and inspection capabilities. At its core, V-12A consists of an optical system consisting of a light source, objective lens, projection screen, and a microscope. The light source is typically a high-intensity lamp powered by either AC or DC current and provides a collimated beam of light. The objective lens focuses the light onto the projection screen, which displays the image being measured. In addition, the microscope provides magnification from 10 to 200 times to allow for precise measurements. The comparator also includes a stage that holds the part being measured and allows for easy positioning and centering. The stage can move in the x, y and z directions and is made of stainless steel for durability and accuracy. It is connected to a vernier scale for gauging movement. In addition, NIKON V-12A includes a variety of accessories such as a digitizing probe, laser collector, and a PC link software package, which enable the user to measure shapes, angles, and features. The operator can control the movements of the part being measured using manual and automatic operation. Manual operation allows for easy adjustment of the position and measurement scales, while automatic operation offers higher-speed movement and advanced measurement functions. V-12A has several features designed to enhance the user experience, such as a digital readout display on the microscope, a lamp timer and a digital indicator light that display unit status. To ensure a consistent, high-quality measurement, the machine is equipped with a range of adjustable and fixed safety features, including an emergency emergency stop button, a foot switch, and an automatic safety check. NIKON V-12A is an ideal tool for optical measuring and inspection in precision industries such as electronics, tool and die, and medical device manufacturing. It provides outstanding accuracy, repeatability, and speed, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
