IMKT has recently acquired a state-of-the-art 3D profilometer, the Keyence VR-6200. This optical measurement system enables contactless surface analysis with sub-micron resolution—fast, comprehensive, and highly precise.
Thanks to its high measurement speed, even time-critical investigations can be carried out efficiently. This allows for real-time monitoring and documentation of damage progression during test series. In addition, the VR-6200 is ideally suited for measuring large areas, complex curved surfaces, and detecting form deviations.
The system is primarily used for geometry analysis of rolling bearings and seals, as well as for the efficient quantification of wear volumes: By performing surface scans before and after tribological tests, the removed material can be precisely quantified.
With this new system, we further strengthen our portfolio in damage analysis, tribological evaluation, and component documentation—laying the groundwork for future research activities at IMKT.
