Introducing the Oasis
The Oasis is a full-featured, non-contact video
profile measurement and inspection system that
allows users to measure multiple dimensions on a
part simultaneously and instantly!
4
Oasis Operational Overview
The Oasis operates by casting a shadow of a
part to be inspected and capturing that image in
a digital format to be analyzed by the integrated
computer. Here we see a screen shot with the
profile of a part being inspected.

Oasis Main Components

• The main components of the Oasis are
• Engineered Light Source
• Inspection Zone
• Telecentric Optical Lens
• Digital Camera
• Integrated Computer
• Custom Software

Now, lets take the covers off to get a closer
look inside
6
Engineered Light Source
The process starts here with the Engineered
light source. It utilizes a specifically
designed LED light that is collimated into
precise rays through a series of diffusers and
lenses that then shine across the part to be
inspected.
7
The Inspection Zone
This is the inspection zone, where the part is
placed for inspection. The engineered light beam
passing across the part creates a perfect profile
for digital analysis.
8
Telecentric Lens
That profile is then seen by a very special
telecentric optical lens, located here. The
telecentric lens is of extremely high quality and
ultra low distortion. These features combine to
accurately gather the light source which defines
the profile of the inspected part.
9
Digital Camera
From the telecentric lens, the part profile is
captured digitally captured by the mounted camera
system and the digital image is then transferred
to the integrated computer.
10
Integrated Computer Software
From there, the Oasis software does the
rest. The image is analyzed, edges located, and
measurements displayed on screen. It might sound
like a lot of data crunching, but the Oasis does
all this 10 times every second, making nearly
instant operation, as youll see.
11
Operation - Programming
To measure a part for the first time, you start
by placing the part into the inspection zone.
Youll immediately see the profile of the part in
the Oasis display, as shown in the picture to the
right. From here, we just need to tell the Oasis
what dimensions we want to measure.
12
Operation - Programming
Well start with the diameter tool. Just select
the diameter tool icon, then drag and drop the
selection over the area that you want to
measure. As we drag the selection over the area,
the measurement is displayed immediately.
13
Operation - Programming
You can add as many dimensions as you need to
check the part.
14
Operation - Programming
The inspection display panel is color coded for a
quick visual check of whether or not a part is
within specification. This example has one
dimension out of tolerance. Setting tolerances
is as easy as right clicking on the dimension and
selecting tolerances. From here you can set the
nominal dimension, the tolerances, and also a
warning level. The display panel now shows
both the measured data as well as the tolerance
limits set.
15
Operation - Programming
With the part programmed for inspection, we can
save the program in the Oasis for future
use. Click file, save and enter a name for the
part program. You only have to program a part
once, and then youll be able to retrieve that
program in the future to inspect the part again.
16
Operation - Programming
Fast, Accurate, Reliable
To measure a part thats been already programmed
in the Oasis, you again start by placing the part
in the inspection zone. However, this time you
can have the Oasis automatically search for a
part program that matches. At this point, you
can measure the parts in rapid succession. Just
drop a part in the inspection zone and get all
measurements simultaneously.
17
Accuracy Testing
In accuracy testing, a 0.5000 pin gage is
randomly placed in the inspection zone and
measured 100 times. The maximum deviation is
0.0002, with 88 of the measurements within
0.0001, and an average deviation of 0.00008.
18
Data Acquisition
The Oasis can save all of the dimensions measured
on-board. Once stored, you can open the data
text file or import the data into your SPC
program. In addition, the Oasis includes QC data
reporting in a Microsoft Excel format.
19
Conclusion
In conclusion, we hope that you agree that the
Oasis is a premier optical profile inspection
system that combines accuracy and precision with
a fast, easy to use operator interface. With the
Oasis, you can increase your inspection
efficiency and achieve 100 real-time inspection,
thereby adding to your bottom line with less time
spent in QC and fewer bad parts produced.
