    6 POSITION PRECISION TURRET and OPTICAL SYSTEM

    The 6 position turret is supplied as a standard feature on all 600 models and allows to install indenters for Vickers, Knoop and Brinell (balls 1mm and 2.5mm) testing. Factory installed, the FALCON 600 has four objectives 2.5X, 10X, 20X, 50X that, in combination with the 18 Megapixel camera, with 4X digital zoom, supersede the need to buy larger magnification objectives.

    STAGE OVERVIEW CAMERA

    Create magnified sample overview with the standard on-board, auto focus, optical and digital zoom, overview camera. The field of view of this sophisticated full color camera system does not limit you to one field of view, but gives a ZOOM range of 50 x 35mm up to 200 x 180mm without the need to use time consuming scan and stitch functions.

    DYNAMIC Z-AXIS CONTROL AND COLLISION DETECTION

    A high end ball bearing Z-axis spindle is one of the very unique functions. Z-axis displacement at an accuracy of micron’s supports ultra-fast auto focus. Z-axis controls are nearly limitless; CNC as a result from a test program, by touch screen indicators, from the built in joy stick, by the scroll wheel of the mouse, by fast up and down buttons or from a scroll wheel on the front of the machine. Positioning has never been this easy. Speed control related to your own movement; (0.01 up to 20 mm/s). To avoid any collision between the work piece and the turret, the Z-axis is controlled by a flawless collision detection and Z-axis retraction system. So neither the tester nor the workpiece are exposed to any damage.

    HIGH SPEED CNC MOTORIZED XY-STAGE

    Save time and improve efficiency with one of the high speed, highly accurate motorized XY-stages. Available in variable sizes from standard, to large and extra-large. Enable automated sequencing of multiple samples. The ultra-high accuracy and repeatability guarantee precise positioning of indents and allow re-evaluation of any measurement points in batch or single view. Repeatability within 3 micron
