Nikon LC15Dx User manual

LC15DxCMM LASER SCANNER
Thanks to the latest laser scanner technology the LC15Dx is a more
capable alternative to a tactile probe for an increasing number of high
precision CMM applications. Manufacturers gain a better appreciation of
the dimensional quality of their products without compromising on cycle
times. A wider range and mix of parts, geometry, materials and transitions
can be measured more efficiently without user intervention.
The LC15Dx is available with any Nikon CMM and can be retrofitted to 3rd
party CMMs and/or combined with a tactile probe and change rack to
create a versatile multi-sensor CMM.

REQUIREMENTS
CMM The LC15Dx is suitable for Nikon and 3
rd
party bridge,
horizontal arm and gantry style CMMs.
Application Software Several proprietary software
packages are available for the LC15Dx including FOCUS
and CAMIO from Nikon Metrology.
PC System Refer to the specific application software
datasheet for the PC system specification.
CMM Controller See Retrofits section below for CMM
controller and probe head compatibility.
Laser Scanner OPCD The Optical Probe Controller for
Digital laser scanners (OPCD) manages all laser scanner
communications and functions, including streaming data to
the application software via a TCP/IP network.
Probe Head The LC15Dx supports the Renishaw PH10M,
PH10MQ and PHS probe heads, and Hexagon CW43 probe
head, see Retrofits section below for CMM probe head and
controller compatibility.
Probe Multiwire A multiwire probe cable, routed through
the CMM from the probe head, is required when using the
LC15Dx .
UPGRADES
Tactile Probe In some cases a single sensor technology
is insufficient for measuring all the features. The LC15Dx can
be combined with an optional touch trigger probe and/or
scanning probe to create a versatile multi-sensor CMM.
Change Rack For fully automatic scanner and tactile
probe changes the LC15Dx can be combined with an
optional Renishaw ACR2 or ACR3/MRS change rack.
Mounting Adaptor For applications where the orientation
of the laser needs rotating in relation to the Probe Head,
optional mounting adaptors are available for the Renishaw
PH10M, PH10MQ and PHS probe heads.
IS1 Interface When the LC15Dx is used in combination
with an optional Renishaw TP7M, SP25 or SP600 probe, an
optional Renishaw IS1-2 Interface Selector is required .
RETROFITS
Retrofitting your current CMM with an LC15Dx and FOCUS software is a cost effective solution. The retrofit integrates with the
existing CMM controller hardware and compatible probe system to provide a versatile multi-sensor CMM
