Measure form tolerance and roughness with (sub)nanometer resolution
Faster areal 3D topography scanning vs deeper insights into texture
Ultra-precision machining as manufacturing process produces components with extremely tight tolerances, achieving a surface super finish, with form accuracies typically in the sub-µm range and roughness in the (sub)nanometer range. The smaller the geometrical characteristics, the more challenging the inspection and processing. TopMap optical surface metrology from Polytec provides measurement solutions for precision machining, diamond turning or single point diamond turning (SPDT), for face milling, grinding, lapping or polishing surfaces and ultra low roughness. Rely on whiltelight interferometry as machining feedback: either for faster form measurements with a large field of view and areal scanning, or gather more structural and texture details with sub-nm resolution!
