smartWLI nimbus8
smartWLI nimbus8 – high-speed, extreme resolution sensor
Equipped with a nosepiece and a high-resolution, fast 10-GigE camera, the sensor offers outstanding perfor-mance for universal measuring stations and optical 3D profilometers used in research facilities for demanding measurement tasks.
Using coherence scanning (white-light) interferometry to measure roughness and micro geometries
Coherence scanning (white-light) interferometry provide a much higher resolution than competitive optical 3d measuring principles as confocal microscopy, focus variation, chromatic confocal sensors, fringe projection or laser triangulation sensors. As microscopical optical measuring principle the GBScanner can be configurated using interference objectives with magnification from 2.5x up to 115x. Structures starting from lateral seize of app. 0.3 µm can be resolved. The upper limit is several mm² for single scans and several cm² for stitched areas.
Advantages of smartWLI sensors and optical profilers compared to other coherence scanning (white-light) interferometer
High speed cameras combined with massive parallel data processing allows to accelerate the data acquisition and evaluation processes and make the systems robust and less sensitive against vibrations. The acceleration enables data acquisition and stitching of several 100 single scans with typical cycle times of 1…3 seconds per single scan. The data processing including contrast enhancement, model-based signal correction and data quality surveillance enables to pick up weak signals on high sloped areas.
