3D Sensor for OEM Integration
Bring world-class measurement directly into your production line: The SensorX is Bruker Alicona's first sensor developed exclusively for OEM integration. Powered by Advanced Focus-Variation technology, it enables machine builders and automation specialists to seamlessly embed precise inline 3D metrology into their systems - delivering traceable quality control, real-time process feedback, and a decisive competitive edge.
Trusted by Leading Manufacturers
The new SensorX greatly simplifies the integration of a measurement system into our NaPrep and, with its future-oriented design, fits seamlessly into our further developed concept. The coaxial light source and the quick-change objective revolver now allow us to measure a significantly wider range of customer workpieces more quickly and easily, and to evaluate them with the new MetMaX software. This enables us to fully exploit the benefits of integrated metrology within an overall process, such as closed-loop control.
