APDIS MV5X
Velocidade industrial num sensor compacto
Weighing less than 12 kg and standing 365 mm high, MV5X can be mounted on robots, rails or fixed positions in any orientation. It measures the surface directly, without attaching targets, preparing the part or changing probes.
- Scanning up to 6.000 points per second
- 24.000 Hz data rate for fast tracking
- IP54 rating and operation between 5 °C and 50 °C
- Range MPE de 20 µm + 5 µm/m
APDIS MV4x0
Large-volume metrology up to 50 metres
MV430 and MV450 variants enable measurement of tooling, structures, moulds, aircraft and large assemblies. The visible beam assists planning, and the system measures without contact in production environments.
- Alcance de 30 m ou 50 m conforme o modelo
- Up to 1.000 points/s with the enhanced scanning option
- Compatible com Metrolog, PolyWorks e SpatialAnalyzer
- Automation using a robot, rail or sensor network
IQ STATIONS · R-SERIES
A compact automated optical CMM
R180S and R180D stations combine an APDIS MV5X, a robot and rotary tables. Robot-independent alignment references measurement to the fixture, reducing dependence on absolute positioning.
- R180S: um posto com mesa rotativa
- R180D: two stations for alternating loading and measurement
- Sem adapters, coatings ou targets
- Installation delivered as an integrated system
IQ STATIONS · DR-SERIES
Dois sensores, rails longos e cobertura total
DR600 and DR600T use two robots on six-metre rails to work in parallel, extend access and shorten cycles for larger assemblies.
- Base volume up to 9.000 × 4.000 × 3.000 mm
- Dois APDIS MV5X sincronizados no processo
- DR600T version with additional rotary tables
- Scalable alternative to fixed large-volume CMMs
GAP & FLUSH EM LINHA
Measure gaps without stopping the vehicle
Three Laser Radars follow the body on the conveyor and measure critical exterior points without robotic arms beside the operator. Results can support assembly correction and statistical control.
- Line tracking up to 140 mm/s
- Up to 170 locations per vehicle
- Repetibilidade dinâmica de referência: <0,150 mm flush
- Repetibilidade dinâmica de referência: <0,300 mm gap

Where non-contact measurement creates value
The absence of targets and long reach make APDIS particularly useful when the part is large, delicate, moving or difficult to probe.

FAQ
Perguntas antes de automatizar
An initial assessment with CAD, tolerances and cycle time helps select the right configuration.
Does APDIS need targets on the part?
No. Laser Radar measures the surface directly, avoiding attached targets, part preparation and physical contact.
Can it work with an industrial robot?
Yes. MV5X was designed for static, rail-mounted or robotic use and can operate in different orientations.
Does it replace a CMM?
In many large-volume or highly automated applications, it can be a faster alternative. The decision depends on tolerance, surface, access and measurement strategy.
Is inline measurement possible?
Sim. Existem arquiteturas para célula junto à linha, controlo frequencial e Gap & Flush com o veículo em movimento.
What information is needed for a study?
CAD, toleranced drawing, materials and finishes, dimensions, throughput, layout and automation interfaces.
What software can be integrated?
The APDIS family supports metrology platforms such as Metrolog, PolyWorks and SpatialAnalyzer; the specific integration is defined for each project.
Do you have a large part, a short cycle or a measurement that is difficult to automate?
Send us CAD, tolerances, production rate and layout. NM3D proposes the APDIS concept, robotics, software and validation plan.
