With over 50 years of experience in optical metrology, we are still eager and curious to push the limits of what is possible. Powerful surface metrology and reliable quality inspections depend on know-how, on insights and on experts. The new Micro.View® and Micro.View®+ are the next generation optical surface profilers from Polytec. Read more, how Focus Finder and Focus Tracker enhance the ease of use, how the CST Continuous Scanning Technology expands the vertical measurement range and how sub-nanometer resolution measurements capture the finest details. This expertise incorporated in these optical profilers results in reliable quality control solutions.

Next generation 3D optical surface profiler - TopMap Micro.View®

Table-top optical profiler Micro.View®

TopMap Micro.View® is an easy to use and compact optical profiler. Combine exceptional performance and affordability with this powerful profilometer. Its extended 100 mm vertical measurement range combined with the innovative CST Continuous Scanning Technology enables topography anaylis at nm resolution with plenty of freedom for sample handling and positioning.This conventient table-top setup of an optical profiler features integrated electronics and a smart feature called Focus Finder for simplified, fast and efficient areal surface characterization for quality control.

 

 

Modular (automated) optical surface profiler Micro.View®+

TopMap Micro.View®+ represents the next generation of optical surface profilers more than any other measurement system within the TopMap line. Micro.View®+ delivers the most detailed topography analysis, detecting all surface details like roughness, texture and microstructure topography. Designed for modularity, this comprehensive surface profiler remains flexible for adaptions to production environements, to application-specific configurations and even semi or fully automated quality control processes. Combine 3D measurment data with color information for amazing visualizations and extended analysis including professional documentation of defects and artefacts. The built-in high-resolution camera delivers incredibly detailed 3D data visualization of all engineered surfaces. The encoded and motorized turret provides seamless switching of microscope objectives. The optical profiler Micro.View®+ also features the latest Focus Finder plus Focus Tracker, keeping the surface in optimum focus at all circumstances. The fully motorized sample positioning stages allow for stitching and automated inspections.

TopMap - the family of optical surface profilers

Meet TopMap - the series of optical 3D surface profling or measurement systems are in their element in all operations where the finest components and structures need to be inspected. Non-contact white-light interferometry allows measurements with a resolution in the nanometer or even subnanometer range. And it’s for this very reason that Polytec’s TopMap devices have become standard tools in the field of industrial quality control.

We are modular

Flexibility with modular configuration is what we wanted. A 100 mm z-range, motorized tip/tilt stage and encoded objective turret are a few of the options. The + in Micro.View+ stands for smart configuration, automation ready, in-line integration and accurate analysis of roughness, texture, microstructures and tribology.

What would be your setup?

We are enlightened

Light is our element! White-light brings out the finest details of your precision engineered surfaces. Microscope objectives characterize surface finish and quantify how rough or smooth. Focus light on your engineering, without bias or contact.

We measure surfaces

We had a vision! We had our mock-up. We had questions. We had fun, and most importantly, success! From now on, the easy-to-interpret visualizations of 3D measurement data shall speak for themselves. It may look like art, but it is in fact your precision engineered surface – just in high resolution. Pure 3D data, without contact, without influencing the measurement itself.

Which surfaces do you measure?

We are handcrafting

We had a vision! Using 100% recycled material in our 3D surface profilers, we started with this lightweight mockup, connected an xy stage and watched… well, it did not measure any surface data, but at least we stayed eco-friendly.

What surface parameters do you measure?
