Elektronischer Autokollimator ELCOMAT Vario
The windows software ELCOWIN served to measure the straightness, squareness, parallelism and flatness of guideways with electronical autocollimators of the ELCOMAT series from the Möller-Wedel-Optical company. Measured values of both horizontal and vertical measuring axes of the ELCOMAT are simultaneously captured and evaluated. The data aqusition is be made automatical and software controlled, but it is also possible to input the measured values manually via keyboard.

The measuring priciple



The geometrical data are prinzipally determined from the location-dependent changes of the tilt angles on the measuring object. At the using the auto-collimation method the location-dependent tilting of an reference mirror to the optical axis of the measuring system will be measured in both horizontal and vertical measuring axes. 
The tilt angle values are the ELCOWIN input data. Depending to the measurement problem ELCOWIN computed the straightness, squareness, parallelism or flatness of the measuring object from these measured values. The accuracy of measurement is only determined from the ELCOMAT accuray (in genenal <= two arcsec.) and the enviroment influences.

ELCOWIN – so that you can concentrate on the measurement

ELCOWIN is characterized by a high ease of use and first class software ergonomics. For different measurement problems you can create custom-tailored measurement templates.
Furthermore ELCOWIN enables the editing, evaluation and storage of the measurement results as soon as whose expressive representation in measurement records and free configurable and scalable graphics. There are interfaces to edit and evaluate the measurement results with additional applications (text processing, spreadsheets etc.) via the MS-Windows clipboard or the creation of textfiles.
For an customer-friendly using of ELCOWIN and a easy measurement design it is possible to save all measurement and evaluation parameter in configuration files.

The measurement process



takes place software-controlled as far as possible. Base of all measurements are measurement templates wherein important measurement parameter are saved (among others the measuring point positions at the measuring object and the using measuring axes).

The measurement status window

shows the progress of measurement. Here you can see all essential informations of the current measurement like the measured values, the using measurement template, the current or next measuring position and so on. With the available functions you start, stop, suspend and resume the measurements. During the measured data aqusition incorrect captured values everytime can corrected by repaeting the measurement at the belonging measuring position. The measured data aquisition optionally takes place manual via keyborad or remote control, automatical clock-controlled or via a manual direct data input.

The representation



of the measurement results takes place in free configurable measurement records and graphics. ELCOWIN can save the measured values and measurement records as textfiles in several formats to processing the same with other applications.
To compare measurements ELCOWIN can represent the results of any measurements in the same graphics, of course with free selectable presentation parameters for each measurement.
