ZEISS Industrial Quality Solutions​

1st Measuring instruments presentation at Leipzig Spring Fair.

The newly developed Optimeter from ZEISS from 1920 was probably the first measuring instrument ever to integrate optics into precision mechanics.

ZEISS also achieved significant technological progress with the ZEISS Universal Measuring Microscope, which was launched on the market in 1926.

In 1950, ZEISS began setting up the "Department for Technical Measuring Instruments". The aim of the department was to design completely new measuring instruments.

In the 1960s there were signs of a revolution in measurement technology: Measuring instruments with numerical-electronic measured value output.

In 1973, the first high-precision three-dimensional coordinate measuring machine was published with a measuring probe, integrated table, computer and its own measuring software.

The “Fine Measurement Department” was renamed in "Industrial Metrology (IMT)".

The new workshop measuring machine series ZEISS WMM, which was launched on the market in 1978, offered a glimpse into the future of measuring.

An important ZEISS IMT innovation from 1983 was the automatic CNC probe changer for coordinate measuring machines.

Reduced measuring times thanks to CAA procedures and CAD programming.

ZEISS CALYPSO: a revolutionary CAD-based measuring software concept.

Production measuring device for temperature-stable measuring like in the measuring room.
 

Computer tomographs for industrial applications, metrotomography in the micrometer range.

Coordinate measuring machine uses innovative technology to advance into new areas of accuracy and dynamics, thus setting new standards.
