3D surface metrology describes the measurement and characterisation of micro- and nano-scale featuers on natural or manufactured surfaces. Sensofar Metrology provides high end non-contact 3D surface profilers based on complementary confocal, interferometry and focus variation techniques (thus ‘3-in-1’). As a result, the systems provide unrivalled versatility for optical measurements of structure and texture across varying surface scales, and even deliver areal surface roughness to ISO 25178 standards. From complete set-ups for industry, R&D and standards laboratories, to flexible and fast in-line metrology solutions with small footprint for production processes.
We have over 40 years of experience in sales and technical support of scientific instrumentation . We can help you decide on the appropriate equipment for your needs.
The new S neox outperforms existing optical 3D profiling microscopes in
terms of performance, functionality, efficiency and design, providing
Sensofar with a class-leading areal measurement system.
Designed as a high-performance 3D optical profiler from the outset, S neox outperforms all existing optical profilers, combining 3 techniques – confocal (best for surfaces with high slope), interferometry (yields the highest vertical resolution) and Focus Variation (measure shape in mere seconds) – in the same sensor head without any moving parts.
For confocal scanning, the S neox uses Sensofar’s patented technology, based on a microdisplay. The ferroelectric liquid crystal on silicon (FLCoS) microdisplay is a fast switching device that makes the scanning of confocal images fast and very stable. Combining this approach with Sensofar’s high NA objectives (0.95), vertical resolution is reduced to below 1 nm. Additionally, as there are no moving parts in the sensor head, there are no maintenance and alignment issues, and the effective lifetime of the sensorhead is unlimited.
Key Features
S lynx is a new non-contact 3D surface profiler designed for use in industry and research. It has been designed as a compact and versatile system. S lynx is able to measure differing textures, structures, roughness and waviness, all across varying surface scales. The S lynx’s versatility makes it appropriate for a broad range of high-end surface measurement applications. Ideal performance is guaranteed by Sensofar’s proprietary 3-in-1 measurement technology, and complemented by the incredibly intuitive operation of the system with the associated SensoSCAN software.
