TOKYO- Nikon Corporation (Nikon) is pleased to announce the release of the “Remote Control SDK” compatible with the CNC Video Measuring System “NEXIV” series for automatic measurement system integration.


"Remote Control SDK" is a tool for developing software routines to control the "NEXIV" via a network. Through remote control of “NEXIV”, electronic, semiconductor, and small equipment components can be measured and inspected, meeting the increasing needs for accurate measurement and inspection in line with shorter delivery time and low cost. In addition, it is possible to remotely control up to 10 "NEXIV" units, helping to improve the productivity of the production line.

 

1. Control Multiple “NEXIV” Systems Remotely

Up to 10 "NEXIV" systems can be controlled remotely, enabling centralized management and distribution of measurement programs and results in one place. By controlling “NEXIV” and measurement programs from a location away from the production factory, such as a control room or office, it will streamline manpower and improve productivity. In addition, measurement can be restarted remotely after any errors are resolved. Furthermore, when integrating “NEXIV” together with the component carrier conveyor system, it is possible to automate the process of loading the components and measuring.
