Laser vibrometers
Polytec's laser vibrometers measure samples of all sizes, from full car bodies and aerospace components to micron-scale MEMS and sensitive biomedical specimens. With fully non-contact operation, they excel in engineering, biology, and medical applications, as well as automotive, semiconductor, electronics and more. Explore your options today.
Single-point vibrometers
Single-point laser Doppler vibrometers measure transfer functions, amplitudes and resonance frequencies without contact in a non-intrusive way thanks to the simple “point and shoot” principle. Single-point vibrometers are laser vibration sensors that measure object vibrations in the direction of the laser beam (out-of-plane motions). From modular concepts to robust industrial vibrometers or compact designs—Polytec will always provide you with the ideal measuerement tool to solve your individual vibration measurement task.
Full-field vibrometers
Full-field vibrometer are vibration measurement systems that allow engineers to conduct areal deflection shape measurements as fundament for validating simulation models and identifying vibration hotspots. They keep the focus firmly on complex vibration behaviour over the entire surface. Polytec’s product range includes everything from scanning vibrometers for stationary processes to multipoint vibrometers (that measure in parallel) for non-stationary and transient processes.
Microscope-based vibrometers
Inspired by the rapid further development of microelectromechanical systems and MEMS, Polytec presents this highly innovative product line of microscope-based measurement systems. MSA Micro System Analyzers from Polytec validate dynamics and topography of microsystems reliably with utmost precision.

Special-application vibrometers
Special testing needs may require special measurement tools. Whether measuring ultrasonic applications in the very high frequency range, or rotational vibrations on rotating structures, or in-plane vibrations measured perpendicular to the measurement beam—there is a Polytec vibrometer to provide the perfect solution.
PolyFlex—Scalable measurement solutions
With PolyFlex, you get the measurement flexibility you need—access to top-tier metrology without the upfront investment. Choose leasing, rentals, or measurement-as-a-service, and scale your capabilities instantly. PolyFlex gives you the freedom to run projects, manage budgets, and make smarter decisions with exactly the level of support you need.
PolyMeasure—Let us do your measurement
Sometimes the fastest, most cost-effective way to get high-quality data is to let the experts handle it. With PolyMeasure, you get instant access to Polytec’s technology and know-how—no hardware purchase, no training, no ramp-up time.
Perfect for one-off tests, troubleshooting, peak workloads, or when resources are tight, PolyMeasure delivers accurate results on your timeline. Our specialists handle the measurements for you—or with you—either in a Polytec lab or directly at your site, so you get answers you can trust without slowing down your project.
Temporary access to measurement equipment
When budgets are tight, you still need to measure what matters—without waiting for CapEx approval. PolyRent gives you short-term access to the exact system you need, for weeks or months, fully calibrated and supported.
It’s the ideal way to bridge downtime, run trials, or add temporary capacity. You get faster results, lower risk, budget flexibility, and effortless scaling—so your projects keep moving, even when funding can’t.
Long-term technology leasing
With PolyLease, you get long-term access to advanced measurement systems without tying up capital—perfect when you need consistent capability but want financial flexibility. You keep the option to return or purchase later, while maintaining the performance your work depends on.
Your benefits: greater budget freedom, lower financial risk, and easy scaling as your projects grow.
Ways to support you
PolyLab education program
Do you want to prepare your students for the cutting-edge technology they will encounter in the industry? While many engineering disciplines involve the study of vibro-acoustics, the cost constraints mean that numerous school labs today are equipped only with basic accelerometers and microphones. Our PolyLab & PolyLab+ educational programs aim to bridge this gap, offering students the opportunity to familiarize themselves with state-of-the-art technology widely used in various industries.
With our PolyXpert engineering services or system rentals, Polytec makes high-precision vibration analysis available to anyone. Benefit and use ultra-modern measuring technology straight away before investing in your own equipment. We support our customers in dedicated training sessions and with specific application support services.
We offer a wide range of testing services done in your facility or in our fully equipped labs for vibration testing, surface metrology, acoustics, speed, and chemical analysis. In addition, all of our products are available for short and long term rentals and leasing.
Unlock the full potential of your project with Polytec's expert-driven testing services and extensive equipment range.
