Optical surface profilers

A whole new package of smart features for quality control (QC) tasks are now available for the TopMap 3D surface profiling systems - the TopMap QC Package supports surface inspections especially in challenging production environments.

Being a complete measuring station, the TopMap Metro.Lab is ideally suited to large-area topographies on almost all surfaces. Since it offers great value for money, it is also attractive for smaller companies with fewer tasks.

The TopMap In.Line’s compact design means it can be easily integrated into the production line and quickly carries out checks on differently reflective surfaces. Steps, larger ripples or other surface structures do not pose any problems here.

Ideal for quick and precise 3D surface characterization. The areal measurement of the TopMap Pro.Surf ensure to not miss any details when inspecting your workpiece surface. Short measuring times and a large field-of-view characterize the TopMap Pro.Surf.

The all-in-one 3D optical surface profiler from Polytec. The precision of a white-light interferometer, complemented by chromatic confocal sensors to overcome form deviations and any roughness determined with one device. Pro.Surf+ measures topography over a large area and, in so doing, characterizes structures with nanometer resolution.

With the TMS-1200 TopMap µ.Lab, you can characterize microstructures’ surfaces with a very high lateral resolution. The optical profilometer contactlessly determines parameters such as texture, flatness, ripple and roughness on both fine and sensitive structures. The Polytec Smart Surface scanning technology even measures areas of a surface with different reflectivities.

Especially for close-to-manufacturing applications where multiple samples are handled, the software module QC Operator Interface guides the operator and greatly simplifies quality control (QC) of precision surfaces.

The TMS Software for Polytecs topography measurement systems of the TopMap series offers a wide range of features and options for quick and easy routine measurements but also for your extensive and detailed surface analysis.

Are you looking for a convenient way to quickly share your measurement results with your colleagues and project partners? TMS Viewer is the viewing tool for TopMap measurement systems, in case the full version of TMS Software is not installed.

Polytec Update is a software tool that provides your Polytec products with the latest software releases and hotfixes. Polytec Update therefore always keeps you posted when there are updates for your Polytec measurement or desktop software – to ensure reliable measurement results and smooth working with Polytec products.

In addition to engineering services in various areas of application that we carry out either on site at your premises or in our laboratories, we can also accompany you with advice and expert knowledge throughout the entire project. Outsource your measurements or let us help.

We offer all users, from beginners, to specialists, the chance to refresh their specialist knowledge and to exchange ideas with our experts during technology days, in seminars and at user conferences.

Highly sophisticated optical measurement equipment needs some limited, but very precise care, in order to maintain the original equipment specifications and precision. It includes cleaning, realigning of the optics if needed, and if further needed, replacement of worn parts as well as maintenance of the mechanical units and functional tests.

Calibration ensures validity of the measurement results and certifies the Polytec measuring instruments to close the loop with your ISO Standard and QM regulations. The System is calibrated by matching various sensitive signal ratios. Alignment and calibration will be carried out with certified calibration tools which also follow regular traceable calibration procedures in accordance with ISO standards.

In case a component of your Polytec System unexpectedly becomes defective we can provide fast and reliable repair with original spare parts, including maintenance of the entire system so that everything works flawlessly again. Standard spare parts we provide from stock. To keep your system up to the latest revisions, we supply parts with the latest improvements and firmware revisions included.

During the product life cycle we constantly improve the series and offer hardware or software upgrades. If you need any additional options or accessories for your current instrument, please contact us, as we may also offer suitable upgrades.

Choose from single service modules or complete packages:

White-light interferometers are the ideal solution for precision inspections of functional surfaces with high quality standards. Our TopMap surface metrology systems characterize surfaces reliably in the research lab, close to and in production lines. Our different TopMap models are desigend for quality inspections under challenging conditions.

In addition to an intuitive operation of the topography measurement systems, the TMS measurement and analysis software enables easy filtering and analysing of your measurement data. For the automated analysis of routine measurement tasks, the open software architecture offers also a application-specific and user-configurable interface.

The range of Polytec services available allows anyone to characterize surfaces of precision engineered products using our engineering services and system rentals. That way, you can make use of our ultra-modern measuring technology investing in your a own instrument. We can also offer you our customer training sessions and application support services.

Optical measurement systems keep their value even after many years of use. Modularly structured Service will help you to maintain the equipment to be ready for use with its latest technical revision at any time. Therefore please ensure that your Polytec Systems are regularly serviced at your nearest Polytec Support Center. This ensures correct operation after many years in use just as accurately as at the very beginning of its service life. Dependent on your preferences we can perform the Service for your Topography Measurements Systems either onsite at your location or at one of our Service Centers. In the latter case we can even offer to arrange packing and transportation for you.
