Optical Metrology
Let’s shape the industry together! Discover the perfect solution for your application!
3D Metrology, or "3D scanning", has advanced high precision quality control in companies around the world. Digital Light Processing (DLP®) is a key-enabling technology in this way of 3D measurement. Our digital Light Engine projects a high-resolution image on any given object, which is scanned from multiple angles. A dedicated software compiles a comprehensive image of the object and compares it, for example, with the original CAD design. This way objects as large as a building or as tiny as a single part of a cogwheel are measured with a few micron accuracy in fractions of a second.
Our projectors for optical metrology applications, have been designed in a way, that customers may change the lens system on-site without further involvement of our team. This feature was made possible through a meticulous optical design and a superior mechanical execution.
