Hey P.M community! I have been tasked with shopping for a new optical comparator. I thought you guys might like to weigh in with some suggestions. Thanks much!
Here is the email I received:
Jay,
QA has been instructed to look for the best solution for replacing our aged 30” Optical Comparator.
The requirements are:
• New, or refurbished with manufacturer’s warranty
• Stage that will travel 20” minimum and handle 30lbs of weight
• Prefer LED lighting, but not a killer
• Basic controls w/digital output
• Programmability nice but not necessary
• 30” screen, 24” with clarity and accuracy
• 10X, 20X magnification
• $50,000.00 ball park cost
• Three different manufacturers, we will review and then ask for sales visits and quotes.
