(Nikon Metrology: Brighton, MI) -- Nikon Corp. has launched the newest version of NEXIV software, AutoMeasure. Dedicated to the NEXIV VMZ-S series, VMZ-H3030, and iNEXIV VMA series, AutoMeasure has evolved significantly from previous versions, incorporating innovative features that make measurement easier for anyone.

Main new features

Measurement code suggestion: When creating a measurement program, the next command candidate is suggested on the GUI. With the operation history, the work of creating measurement programs for customers is greatly simplified and individual operator differences are reduced.

Auto-focus (AF) retry: Prevents measurement interruption by automatically retrying AF until it is successful. Operators are needed only at the start of measurement, greatly reducing onsite workload.

Automatic measurement path optimization: When using a CAD reference macro, the optimal measurement order for measurement points is automatically detected and reflected in the measurement program. This function enables the fastest measurement possible, tailored to individual workflows.
