The ability to measure detail at a distance, without the need for handheld probes, targets or surface preparation, means that Nikon’s APDIS Laser Radar is ideally suited to automating repetitive inspection tasks covering a huge range of manufacturing, industrial and research applications, including those that involve hard to reach features and are complex, delicate or labor intensive.

See how the next generation of Laser Radar is revolutionizing industrial metrology.
Fast and accurate automated measurements with minimal setup time provide the ultimate in measurement productivity.
Portable and shop floor suitable, absolute and accurate measurements of parts can be performed in the production line or wherever they are required including directly in a production line.
Using long-range, automated, laser-based technology keeps the part under investigation a safe distance from both the instrument and the operator.
Heterodyne interferometry allows APDIS Laser Radar to measure almost any surface without the need for part preparation, targets or feature adapters.
The APDIS MV430 and MV450 measurement systems are used for fast, automated, non-contact inspection of objects ranging from smaller components such as a car door to large assemblies such as a commercial aircraft. It achieves this through the application of unique, accurate, laser-based, non-contact measurement technology that overcomes the limitations of traditional monolithic or portable metrology systems. Repeatability is ensured by automated and non-contact measurement, independent of the user. System operation is simplified through the use of standard software interfaces such as Metrolog, Polyworks and Spatial Analyzer.
