Ideal for All Measuring Tasks

PRISMO navigator from ZEISS is synonymous around the world for high-speed scanning and maximum accuracy near production. With length measurement error of just 0.5+L/500 millimeters, ZEISS PRISMO ultra is ideal when maximum demands on precision have to be met.

Turbo scanning: VAST navigator

ZEISS PRISMO navigator enables high-speed with maximum precision. navigator technology is the logical enhancement to scanning from ZEISS. It automatically configures the maximum measuring speed during scanning – with guaranteed accuracy. Additional time is saved through tangential approach and scanning, helix scanning and fast dynamic stylus calibration.

Computer-Aided accuracy (CAA)

ZEISS PRISMO navigator uses computerguided corrections of all dynamic influences on the machine. This optimizes precision during high-speed scanning.

Measuring near production

ZEISS PRISMO is also ready for environments near production, thus eliminating a trip to the measuring lab. All machine parts critical to operations are perfectly matched. This is achieved through the use of in-house developments for all critical components.

Machine technology

• Bridge made of carbon-fiber compounds and ceramic for minimal weight and high flexural strength

• Temperature-neutral, glass ceramic scales

• All axes with air bearings from ZEISS on four sides. X axis: 8 air bearings; Y axis: 8 air bearings; Z axis: 5 air bearings

• Elastomer vibration damping, as well as covered guideways and scales for use near production

• Workpiece weights up to 5,000 kg

ZEISS PRISMO ultra

ZEISS PRISMO ultra further increases the accuracy of ZEISS PRISMO navigator. This precision is achieved through more accurate scales, a modified air bearing connection, air damping and stricter matching of all machine parts. ZEISS PRISMO ultra is therefore ideal for jobs in research, development and quality assurance, as well as for the calibration of gages and test pieces.

multi application sensor system

ZEISS PRISMO navigator comes standard with the multi application sensor system (mass) from ZEISS. mass enables both contact and optical measuring on the same machine. Sensors can be changed out in just a few steps thanks to the common interface for all sensors.
