Accurately inspect needle tips inline. The TM-X5000 is a calibrated and traceable 2D measurement sensor that can be used for reliable inspection of medical components.

Historically, it's been difficult to inspect dimensions of transparent objects, but the TM Series makes it easy. The factory calibrated, backlit sensor greatly reduces the man-hours required to accurately measure transparent ampoules or vials.

Uniform thickness is important for IV bags. Measuring thickness inline using high precision displacement sensors provides an accurate, non-contact method for checking uniformity.

Reduce measurement time by inspecting guide wire shape using an optical micrometer. Profile the shape of the tip quickly by connecting an encoder to the micrometer and recording the diameter at regular intervals. Reliably measure OD down to 10 μm, or rotate the guide wire to inspect for ovality with a single sensor.

Measure outer diameter of stents without contacting the part. Using a 2D micrometer, you can automatically find the minimum and maximum diameter over an area.

3D inspection of blister packaging enables defection of tears or missing tablets. Using laser profilers allows you to reliably inspect blisters regardless of color.

Inspect for mold wear without touching the surface. The CL-3000 is coaxial, making it possible to measure grooves in the mold with high accuracy.
