Automatic Calibration

Verification through height measurement


Height measurements with the AutoCalibration can be verified using a micro-contour-artefact that is calibrated by the PTB (Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig). The depth measurement standard from the PTB contains grooves of different depth (from 240nm to 50µm).
  • The unique AutoCalibration works fully automatically. Alicona is the only supplier able to offer this technology.
  • MeX is the only real metrology package that allows numerically accurate measurements independent on the magnification.
  • MeX allows extended analysis features such as ISO conform roughness analysis and extended form analysis.

Verification through radius measurement


Measurements of the pure software solution MeX can be verified using a micro-contour-artefact that is calibrated by the PTB (Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig).
The artefact contains different regions including steep flanks, height steps and cylindrical elements.
The following measurements can be verified:
  • Circle measurements
  • Steep flanks
  • Depth measurements

3d micro-coordinate measurement technique for roughness and form measurement

Alicona offers optical 3d surface measurement systems for quality assurance in research and production. Core competence is the measurement of roughness and form also across large measurement areas and volumes. The cutting edge measurement and the measurement of small radii and angles are typical applications. Focus-Variation, the core technique of the InfiniteFocus line, combines the traditional surface metrology and the micro coordinate measurement technology. This technology achieves traceable and repeatable results in highest resolution even in production.
