Confovis OEM module

The OEM module from Confovis permits manufacturers of measuring machines and inspection systems for roughness measurement as well as micro contour measurement to enjoy the benefits of its patented optical measurement method (Structured Illumination Microscopy). The module uses neither laser scanning nor moving parts (such as mirrors or multi-pinhole discs) and therefore it is insensitive to vibration. The module requires no maintenance and invariable produces first-class results. 3D scanning is performed in focal planes by a structured illumination sequence.

Unlike the confocal measurement technology, the Confovis OEM module does not scan a surface point by point or line by line, but rather an area – and provides data of a quality that makes standard deviations in roughness measurements (for example at the Halle KNT 4070/03/A3 (Rz 0.45µ)) comparable with those of the National Metrology Institute of Germany (PTB). Sensitive surfaces such as polyamide films or diamond coatings can also be measured. The system can measure unknown surfaces, traceable to generally applicable standards and norms without additional know-how.
