Keyence Optical Measuring device

We have one of these. An IM-6120 I think. I really like the convenience and simplicity of making measurement programs on the device.
My question is this, if anyone can help me:
The manual claims accuracy down to 1 micron in wide field and 1/2 micron in high-def.
Is this, well, accurate?
The intra webs have few resources where I can actually go and see what real-world accuracy is. The company website is not a credible source for anything other than a sales pitch (IMO).
Thanks!

  • I would get a second opinion on that, the Keyence includes a measurement artifact (looks like a small transparency slide, well, ours did) for checking performance.


    I've seen that thing, but I will have to look up how to use it if said instructions are actually in the manual.
    I should give them credit though, unlike our CMM, there actually is a manual that plays more than lip service to the user.
