Optical surface profilers
Optical surface profilers from Polytec are innovative, high-precision and non-contact tools for characterizing the surface topography in 3D. They are based on the principle of white-light interferometry, which is also known as coherent or vertical scanning interferometry or coherence radar. Thanks to their large vertical range, nanometer resolution and areal measurement, they are perfect for contactlessly measuring the flatness, step height and parallelism of large sample structures – on almost every material.
Surface profilers
White-light interferometers are optical 3D surface profilers and the ideal solution for inspecting functional surfaces with utmost precision and reliability. TopMap surface metrology systems measure form parameters like step-height, waviness, flatness and parallelism, as well as roughness and microstructures in all environments from research laboratories, close to and in production lines.
Capture, evaluate and analyze surface data
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. You need even more functions? The TMS report packages additionally expand the already large range of functions of the TMS Software. Contact us!

TopMap QC Package
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.
TopMap Micro.View
TopMap Micro.View is an easy to use and compact optical profiler. Choose Micro.View as the cost-effective quality control solution for surface analysis of precision-engineering, for inspecting roughness, microstructures and more surface details.
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.
TopMap Pro.Surf
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.
TopMap In.Line
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.
TopMap Metro.Lab
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.
Operator Interface
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.
TMS Software
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.
TMS Viewer
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.
