Making the most of your measuring scope purchase
Article Abstract:
Measuring microscopes, used for dimensional measurements of small manufactured components, are now equipped with new options dependent on the buyer's needs. Options range from traditional units to video-based microscope system to a combination of both. Buyers should consider important factors, such as stage size, precision, lighting type, magnification, 3D measurement capabilities and output type, before making a purchase.

High-temperature periscope takes the heat
Article Abstract:
Fuse Tech Inc of Vermilion, OH, decided to acquire the FireSight high-temperature viewing system from Lenox Instrument Co Inc of Trevose, PA, to enable Fuse Tech's technicians to view otherwise inaccessible areas in furnaces. The high-temperature periscope also allows technicians to record the whole inspection and repair procedure on videotape, with accompanying audio narration.
