Hi, a year back or so, a friend of mine called me. The great madness was
going on at the company where I used to work. Restructuring,
reorganization, reborn, lots of re. Lots of machines and instruments were
thrown in big containers. My friend felt sad seeing production- and lab
equipment in the (once) million dollar level be cast out. Among them a
remarkable instrument ,named " Micro Dynavision". Nobody knew who had
bought the instrument and none had a clew what was the use of it. And there
was no interest from anyone to have it. So, I got it. The cost is said to
have been about 50,000 ...20 years ago. Now. The instrument is a wonder of
mechanical precision, with numerous Loctite'd adjustment screws, three
precision xyz digitizer bars (encoders), three light sources and a vision
optic system with something that starts spinning when you switch on the
Instrument. It's a heavy thing, weight about 50 kilograms. A computer
belonged to it, but it was thrown before I got the machine. There are no
servos, but you move the table with two micrometer. Has anybody ever seen
this machine, and what is it made for?
