The difference between a tool microscope and an image measuring device
1. Differences in structural design
1. The design structure of the image measuring instrument is relatively simple, and the measurement range can be maximized according to customer requirements.
2. The tool microscope is very compact and precise in design, retaining a pure optical measurement system, using eyepieces and objective lenses for observation and measurement. The transmission uses bearing guide rails, with high measurement accuracy, and can be used with various accessories to perform a variety of measurement tasks.
Measurement operations are different
1. The image measuring instrument can measure planar two-dimensional workpieces very quickly, and the software has many functions. Many measurements are completed by relying on the software.
2. The tool microscope has a wide range of measurement. Some parts must be measured through accessories. It can also measure height under a high-magnification objective lens. It has certain technical requirements for the operator. After being equipped with software, it can have all the functions of an image measuring instrument.
Different measuring ranges
1. Image measuring instruments are more suitable for measuring flat two-dimensional workpieces, but for cylindrical parts, such as cutting tools, threads and screw rods, it is very inconvenient, not accurate enough, or even impossible to measure.
2. The measuring range of the tool microscope is extremely wide. It can be equipped with a variety of accessories such as an indexing head, a circular workbench, and a thimble holder to measure cylindrical parts and two-dimensional parts more accurately.
Therefore, for some workpieces that are on a flat surface and do not require high accuracy, you can choose an image measuring instrument. For workpieces that require high precision and even require secondary focusing during the process, tool microscopes are used.
