NanoSurf confocal microscope demo unit for only $39,000 (originally priced at $125,000)
The confocal microscope NanoSurf was especially designed for R&D and industrial quality assurance as an independent 3D optical measurement system. The instrument is based on white light confocal microscopy, which is a powerful alternative to white light interferometers.
The NanoSurf can measure optically complex surface structures
while maintaining high vertical and lateral resolution.The confocal physical
filtering principle leads to a significant reduction of optical artifacts
and a robust & predictable height signal in cases, where other optical methods
fail.
Measuring results using surface roughness standards show a good correlation
to the most accurate tactile instruments. The NanoSurf confocal microscope
is the only non-destructive optical measurement system that provides this
high level of correlation for non contact characterization of complex surface
structures.
| The NanoSurf confocal microscope |
The NanoSurf consists of a compact
confocal module that is mounted to a solid stand and can be moved in vertical
direction. The sample is placed on an x-y precision slide.
Because of the precise motion control, extended measurement areas can be measured
by combining basic fields via stitching.
The NanoSurf confocal microscope is controlled by software working under MS
Windows® NT; the surface topography data can be presented and analyzed
in various ways.
