Gain confidence before you invest
Surface profilers are a major investment. With Polytec, you can validate performance risk-free before purchasing—based on real data, not assumptions.
Choose one option or combine several to reach a confident, data-driven decision:
- Online or on-site demo
- Feasibility study or PolyMeasure project
- On-site testing with PolyRent or PolyLease

Start with an online or on-site demo
Most customers begin with a live demo to quickly understand software usability, workflow efficiency, and automation capabilities.
You’ll see real measurement examples, automated recipes, data evaluation, and reporting—giving you a clear picture of how the profiler fits into daily operation.

Request a feasibility study or a PolyMeasure project
For deeper confidence, you can send us your components for a feasibility check. This gives you a precise understanding of the optical profiler’s performance on your actual samples. The process is straightforward:
- Send us your sample.
- We perform the analysis.
- We walk you through the results
Often a follow-up step is to extend the analysis and run a PolyMeasure project or rent a system with PolyRent.
Are feasibility studies free of charge?
Yes. With our feasibility studies we will do an initial analysis of your desired parameters and provide a general reports that demonstrates the capabilities.
What is the difference between a feasibility study and PolyMeasure?
Feasibility studies confirm whether your measurement task is technically feasible and demonstrate achievable parameters.
PolyMeasure projects are contractual measurements with defined scope, reporting, and deliverables—ideal when you need detailed results or decision-ready data.

Test our profilers at your site with PolyRent
For the most realistic evaluation, test a Polytec surface profiler directly in your own environment—with your team and your parts.
You can:
- Validate workflow integration
- Compare performance across samples and configurations
- Evaluate over days, weeks, or months
Rental fees can be partially credited toward a future purchase.

What is PolyRent?
PolyRent provides short-term access to a fully supported surface profiler for hands-on evaluation without purchase commitment.
What is PolyLease?
PolyLease offers long-term access with predictable costs and the option to purchase later—ideal for sustained evaluation or budget flexibility.
How long can I test the profiler with PolyRent and PolyLease?
With PolyRent, you can test a surface profiler for the period that fits your project—anywhere from a few days to several months. This flexibility lets you evaluate the system thoroughly in your process environment and with your real samples
Can I rent and later buy the system?
Absolutely. And even better—the rental fee can be partly deducted from the purchase price. Just get in touch with the PolyXperts to discuss your demands and get your rental quote.

Not sure which evaluation path is right for you?
We’ll help you choose the fastest and most cost-effective way to validate your measurement needs—from a quick demo to a full on-site test.
