Chotest Novator Series – High-Precision CNC Video Measuring Systems for 3D Metrology

Automated optical metrology at the highest level: The Novator series combines speed, precision, and state-of-the-art sensor technology for the quality assurance of complex components.

The Novator series of CNC Vision Measuring Machines from Chotest is the ideal solution for companies with high demands on the accuracy and repeatability of their measurement processes. Whether in electronics, precision engineering, medical technology, or the automotive industry – the Novator models offer a fully automated 3D measurement solution that seamlessly combines optical and tactile sensing.

Precision Meets Versatility

Every machine in the series (from the compact 333 to the large-format 682) is built on a high-stability granite base to guarantee thermal stability and vibration-free measurements. Thanks to the high-performance zoom lens and high-resolution color camera, even the finest structures are captured with extreme clarity.

Models at a Glance:

• Novator 333: Compact solution for small, high-precision parts (Measuring range 300 x 300 x 300 mm).
• Novator 342: Optimized for flatter or elongated workpieces (Measuring range 400 x 300 x 200 mm).
• Novator 562: Mid-sized system for versatile applications (Measuring range 600 x 500 x 200 mm).
• Novator 682: Large-format solution for maximum capacity (Measuring range 800 x 600 x 200 mm).

Key Benefits at a Glance:

• Fully Automatic CNC Control: Maximum efficiency through automated measurement sequences in X, Y, and Z.
• Multisensor Capability: Optional integration of tactile Renishaw probes or laser sensors for complex 3D geometries.
• Outstanding Optics: Programmable 12x zoom lens for flexible magnification without manual intervention.
• Intelligent Lighting: Programmable LED ring light, diascopic (backlight), and coaxial episcopic light for optimal contrast detection.
• Powerful Software: Intuitive measurement software for rapid creation of measurement programs, CAD comparison, and statistical analysis.
• Stability: Solid granite construction for long-lasting accuracy in the micrometer range.

Technical Highlights:

• Precision Guides: High-quality linear rails for smooth and exact positioning.
• High Resolution: Linear scales with a resolution of up to 0.1 µm.
• User-Friendliness: Easy "teaching" of measurement sequences via joystick or CAD import.
