8 Mins to Master VME/VMK CNC Measuring

Master VME/VMK CNC Video Measuring Instrument Skills in 8 Minutes

Hey guys! Today, let’s chat about a super impressive measuring tool — the VME/VMK series CNC Video Measuring System from Mikrosize! Don’t let its “professional look” scare you off; honestly, it’s way easier to pick up than it seems, as long as you know the tricks.

When you first get your hands on this video measuring system, yeah, its setup might feel a little complicated at first. But no need to stress at all! Just plug in the power, fire up the instrument, and once the screen lights up — boom, you’re ready to start your measuring work!

But wait, one quick little thing before you dive in: make sure the workbench is totally clear of any clutter. Then, gently place the workpiece you need to measure on the table. Try your best to keep the workpiece level, okay? This tiny step really helps make your measurement results way more accurate later on.

And here’s a big plus: Mikrosize’s operation interface is so user-friendly, it’s almost like using your phone! All the icons and menus on the screen are super easy to understand — no confusing jargon here. When you’re ready to measure, just click the “Measurement Mode” option first. There are tons of modes to choose from, like 2D or 3D measurement. Just pick whichever fits what your workpiece needs, simple as that.

Let’s say you want to do a 2D measurement. Once you’ve selected the mode, use the instrument’s control lever to move the lens — line it up exactly with the part of the workpiece you want to check. The VME/VMK CNC’s lens is incredibly clear; it catches every little detail of the workpiece perfectly. Then, pick the right measuring tool on the screen — stuff like straight line measurement or circle measurement works great. For example, if you go with straight line measurement, just click the two endpoints of the line on the workpiece (right there on the screen!), and the instrument will calculate the length, angle, and all that data in a split second. So convenient, right?

What if you need to measure something with a tricky, complex shape? No worries at all! The software on this measuring system is so powerful. It can automatically “fit” the contour of the complex shape using multi-point measurement, then figure out all the related size parameters. And the best part? You can save the measurement data in real time. After you’re done measuring, you can check or export the data anytime — super handy for later analysis!

A few quick pro tips while you’re operating it: adjusting the light brightness a little can help you see the workpiece’s details way clearer. That means even more accurate measurements! And Mikrosize made dimming or brightening the light super easy — there’s a special button right on the interface, so you can do it in one click.

Oh, and one last thing: when you’re all done with your measurement task, don’t forget to turn off the instrument and wipe down the workbench. This doesn’t just make the VME/VMK CNC last longer; it also makes it way smoother for the next person (or you!) to use later.

With Mikrosize’s advanced tech and super careful design, the VME/VMK CNC Video Measuring Instrument is really the total package — easy to use, but packed with power! Whether you’re a pro engineer or a total newbie to measuring tools, you’ll pick it up in no time. And then you can enjoy all the convenience that fast, efficient measurement brings!
