Precision Manufacturing
The Mitutoyo Contracer offers a highly accurate and efficient solution for contour measurement, designed to streamline your measurement processes while ensuring maximum precision. After a thorough analysis of all contour measurement operations, key functions have been redesigned to enable fast, accurate, and easy measurements. As a result, whether you’re working with large, complex components or smaller, intricate parts, the Mitutoyo Contracer is built to meet your needs.
Key Features of Mitutoyo Contracer
The Mitutoyo Contracer has been designed to improve both operability and measurement speed. By enhancing core functions, the Contracer reduces set-up time and improves high-volume, repetitive measurement processes. This makes it ideal for precision manufacturing, ensuring that each measurement is completed with speed and accuracy.
Quick and Easy Operation: The Mitutoyo Contracer features a centralised front control panel, which reduces the operator’s workload. Notably, switches for stylus position changes, measurement start/stop, and return are all easily accessible, making the measurement cycle more efficient.
X-Axis Jog Shuttle: Additionally, with a range of 0.02 – 20 mm/s, the jog shuttle provides smooth operation with both coarse and fine feed options. The drive unit moves easily to the measurement position, ensuring a hassle-free experience.
Quick-Vertical-Motion Stand: Moreover, the newly designed stand allows operators to move the drive unit quickly to the measurement height without effort. It also includes a reference stop for rapid repositioning, streamlining the measurement process.
Highly Accurate Measurement
The Mitutoyo Contracer delivers highly accurate digital scales, significantly improving measurement precision. The detector unit is equipped with a digital arc scale, which tracks the arc locus of the stylus tip for accurate compensation and output. Consequently, this results in an accuracy of ±(2.5 + |0.1H|) μm, ensuring reliable results for even the most demanding measurement tasks.
Benefits of Mitutoyo Contracer
High Resolution: The Contracer offers a resolution of 0.1μm over the entire measurement range, ensuring fine measurement details are captured with precision.
Efficient Repetitive Measurements: With faster X-axis movement and improved stylus functions, the drive unit can return to the measurement start position after auto-displacement. This makes it ideal for high-volume, repetitive measurements.
Adaptable for Inclined-Plane Measurements: Furthermore, the CV-2100 series comes with an inclination mechanism, allowing inclined-plane measurement without changing settings. This feature is particularly useful when measuring complex shapes.
Versatile Software Support: FORMTRACEPAK
The Mitutoyo Contracer comes with FORMTRACEPAK software, offering complete support for measurement system control, surface roughness analysis, contour analysis, and more. It includes the following features:
Contour Analysis: Functions for points, lines, circles, angles, pitches, and distances. The contour tolerancing feature compares design data with measured data for improved quality control.
Multi-Language Support: With 18 languages supported, you can easily switch between languages for seamless operation and reporting, making it ideal for global operations.
Measurement Control: You can create part programs for single or multiple workpieces, integrate measurement flow, and efficiently output reports.
Increased Efficiency and Reduced Operator Workload
With Mitutoyo Contracer, repetitive tasks become faster and easier. The centralised control panel and easy access to key functions reduce the operator’s workload, while the X-axis jog shuttle and quick vertical motion stand enable smoother operation and faster set-up.
The Mitutoyo Contracer is a fantastic tool for any manufacturing environment that requires high-precision contour measurement. With its easy operation, high accuracy, and advanced features, the Contracer helps businesses maintain high standards of quality control while improving overall productivity.
