Optical Gaging Products’ (OGP) SmartScope E45 is a floor model addition to the SmartScope E-Series family of automatic digital zoom metrology systems for industrial quality control. The E-Series lineup features fixed lens, digital zoom systems with IntelliCentric optics and are designed to be accessible for all skill levels and budgets.
The E45 features the fixed lens IntelliCentric optical system — a fully telecentric optical system providing high-resolution images, which is well suited for video edge detection metrology. The digital zoom enables instantaneous magnification changes, while the standard all-LED lighting system illuminates parts from all angles. E45 features a generous stage to handle large parts or a variety of smaller parts.
“SmartScope E45 combines innovative optical design, advanced camera technology and OGP’s class-leading image processing algorithms,” says Jim Stern, director of OGP Applications Engineering. “E45 has the same feature size range as mechanical zoom optical systems, but without moving parts, increasing throughput and system longevity. The IntelliCentric optical system produces outstanding optical performance at low zoom, with fantastic image quality, telecentricity and distortion-free imaging.”
