An Image Measuring Instrument is a high-precision optical device composed of a CCD lens, objective lens, display, grating ruler, etc. It's based on machine vision technologies. It can measure 2D dimensions like points, lines, circles precisely. Widely used in machinery, electronics, etc. It's efficient, accurate, and non-contact, suitable for various workpieces.
The "2.5D" aspect allows it to measure the height or depth of objects to a certain extent. This is achieved through methods like focus variation or the use of additional sensors. It's widely used in the manufacturing of electronics components, where it's essential to measure the height of pins, the depth of grooves, and the elevation differences on circuit boards. In the field of precision machining, it helps to check the height of steps and the depth of cavities. The accuracy and versatility of 2.5D image measuring instruments make them a valuable asset for quality control and reverse - engineering applications.
