Available Add-Ons

NSI-MI’s arch scanners can be configured with NSI- MI’s Motion Control and Laser Technology to achieve even higher levels of measurement accuracy. This option can be used to characterize and compensate for errors that are repeatable. The compensation is determined as a combination of an off-line calibration procedure prior to measurement and several real-time updates to that calibration during the measurement. The motion of the near-field probe is compensated in real time to follow the calibrated path that will minimize position errors.
