CZW3 measuring microscope
Our CZW3 CNC product line provides motorized support for highly accurate, repeatable measurements of complex workpieces made from any material. Up to the 3-axis system with automatic edge detection, the CZW3 offers a wide range of software and hardware configurations for your specific measurement requirements. With its robust mechanics, the CZW3 is ideally suited for long-term use in quality assurance, production, and laboratory applications.
Application examples
Thanks to its high accuracy and flexible application options, the CZW3 is successfully used in a wide range of industries—from the automotive industry and medical technology to electronics manufacturing. Below you will find a selection of parts from our customers.

Variants
The CZW3 is available in three different measuring ranges:

300 x 300 mm

450 x 250 mm

600 x 600 mm
Software
An intuitive, icon-driven user interface, a flexible probe library, and powerful tolerance and programming functions make M3 software the perfect solution for optical measuring systems. All conceivable geometric measurements can be carried out in no time.

Software options
The M3 measurement software can be expanded with various options, for example to measure threads quickly and easily.
The relevant measurement points are captured and optimally fitted into the specified tolerance band. Multiple profiles with different tolerance ranges can be integrated into one measurement sequence.
Position the profile tool, press the Fit button, and perform a fitting operation. Perform as many fitting operations as necessary to achieve the best possible result.
Fitting parameters can be adjusted using the profile measurement toolbar. Suitable controls include independent fitting conditions for X/Y translation and rotation, fit-point density, fit algorithm type, and fit-point filtering.

Easily analyze the profile fitting results with intuitive tools: quickly identify and read the worst point, the best point, or a specified number of points relative to the profile tolerance.
The module enables thread measurement with just one click. It outputs the major diameter, minor diameter, pitch diameter, thread pitch, as well as, as secondary coefficients, the value to the thread crest and to the thread root.
The calculated element for the thread outputs six thread-specific values.
O = major diameter
R = minor diameter
P = pitch diameter
L = pitch
c = section to the thread crest
r = section to the thread root

Optional: Probe for measuring
3D geometries
The CZW3 can be upgraded with a probe for three-dimensional measurements.
