Measuring the Unmeasurable with the Keyence IM-6000
Our precision machine shop is known for working on highly intricate, delicate parts—the kind that require an extra level of care to ensure they meet quality standards.
How do we deliver on our commitment to quality? One way is by investing in the right technology to measure every single part accurately, no matter how fine its features.
Benefits of the Keyence IM-6000
When our customers provide drawings and files indicating specific measurements and tolerances, we do everything in our power to create parts that meet their specifications. That involves measuring features carefully, which can be challenging with delicate parts.
Our Keyence Image Dimension Measurement System (IM-6000) provides a solution to this problem. It’s a no-touch method of measuring parts with features so fine that they would be destroyed or deformed by a standard CMM with touch probes.
Here’s what customers can expect from this innovative technology:
Speed. The Keyence IM-6000 can generate 99 detailed measurements in three seconds and provide an automated, customizable report. No time-consuming setup required—this device gets the job done quickly, helping us keep costs low and lead times short.
Accuracy. With its high-precision camera, the Keyence IM-6000 is accurate up to 0.000004”. It also minimizes human error linked to operator subjectivity. Less advanced measuring devices rely on an operator’s eye to manually adjust the focus and align the edge of the part being measured. The Keyence IM-6000 completes each task automatically.
The Keyence IM-6000 is ideal for inspecting aerospace, defense, food service, and medical parts, which we take great pride in making for many of our customers.
