How to do Vision only alignment on Optiv 2Z443 multi sensor

Hi All,
I am wondering if their is an accurate way and how to do a vision only alignment on the optiv 2Z443?? I am working on some very small medical parts with small features that is why I want to use vision only. I have the part just laying on the table with nothing holding it down due to its size so I can't touch with the probe since it is not secure to the table. Any input is appreciated!

  • Jefman, So I am guessing that you have a 901. The thing is the original AT401 wasn't meant to do anything but probe measurements with a SMR. The fact that they introduced the B-Probe is pretty sweet even with the loss of accuracy. As far as price, I didn't think it was bad considering is measuring volume and accuracy. I think its funny that the Romer Rep went against the Leica Rep, to me they really are different systems not to mention they brought in a scanning arm. Both have their high points but both could struggle in each others "market".

    Jefman, if you don't like PcDmis (which I understand from the scanning side) why not look at Polyworks? That works really well with that system. Its not as strong with GD&T but works for most companies. And you are absolutely correct in regards to the PC, don't skimp as this is the one area most companies lack to put any investment in. The get the computer that gets by rather then the one that is a over achiever.

    At any rate there is some really cool technology out there and I can't wait to see what is out there in another 3-5 years.
