When the inside matters
ZEISS METROTOM 1 stands for ease of use, precise 3D data and quality control from the outside in.
One scan, deep insights
Fast, intuitive and highly precise
A compact and easy-to-operate system to capture the data for your tasks
The simple-to-operate system enables various users to start the measuring process and capture precise data. Characterized by its compact dimensions, METROTOM 1 fits easily into your space. Get started with your inhouse measurements and inspections in just one step by pushing the button. To keep your maintenance low, the smart and compact solution comes with a closed x-ray tube.
Capture 3D data without part preparation
With METROTOM 1 you can inspect internal structures and defects using non-destructive scanning. No part preparation is needed before starting the measurement process. While you scan the next part, you can inspect or reverse engineer the previous one.
Multiple part scanning
Measuring multiple parts at the same time is one of the most efficient features of METROTOM 1. The formula is simple: high quantities with optimum use of the measuring volume. The result: faster scanning time per part without compromising on quality. ZEISS INSPECT automatically separates and evaluates the individual parts so that results are quickly available as a report.
Check internal structures and defects
The METROTOM 1 with ZEISS INSPECT guides you step-by-step through the measurement process. With volume visualization and inspection of your scan data, you can discover all dimensions of your parts, even the hidden ones. By scanning all internal and external structures, parts can be easily reversed.
Easy and efficient. With just one scan. METROTOM 1 supports you with:
- 3D scanning of small to medium components
- Accurate measurement
- Quality inspection and assurance
- Deep analysis of rejects
- Checking components against their CAD
A smart all-in-one concept
Features
Active temperature balancing for precise results
Highly accurate measurement results
Every METROTOM 1 is checked for accuracy – during production and additionally after the on-site installation. The accuracy check is done using a calibrated and DAkkS-certified acceptance artifact. The scanner can be recalibrated by you at any time using the calibration object on site.
Digitally guided by ZEISS INSPECT for optimal results
Different applications have different requirements
Measure everything easily within a measuring volume of 165 x 140 mm. The measuring volume can be fine-tuned digitally. At the same time, you can adjust the resolution to speed up your process resulting in fast scanning times according to your needs.
