The design goal of the Optiv Reference series was to improve the measuring accuracy. The fundamental design is a fine-pored granite base fixed-gantry rigid frame and moving table construction. The table’s Y-axis incorporates V-shaped dovetail for the highest precision guide-way design. These base and upper gantry frame rest on a 4-leg stand with integrated vibration damping. All axes are equipped with pre-loaded air bearings. Axis are driven through their centre of mass using backlash-free recirculating ball screws and includes DC servomotors with closed control loops and speed control.

The exclusive Optiv Dual-Z-Design is included as standard on all Reference models as is the complete range of sensors and the accessories, for example motorised indexable probes and various rotary table combinations.

With the Optiv Reference line we use high quality materials to provide the quality necessary to meet the tightest production tolerances.

• Exclusive Optiv Dual-Z-Design for maximum flexibility during multisensor measurements
• Wear-free guide system with air bearings
• Complete 3D-CAD integration in the preparation of measurement routines with PC-DMIS Vision
