OptiCentric®

Inspection, Alignment, Cementing and Assembly of Optics

Description
 

According to ISO 10110 a centering error is present when the optical and the reference axis of a lens do not coincide, respectively these are different in position or direction.

During the process of cementing, alignment and bonding of lenses in a mount, significant centering errors can result and add to the machining errors of a lens. Consequently, the requirements of a high performance optical system can only be fulfilled when all the production steps from the centering tolerance measurement to the assembly of the lens in a mount are planned and designed as an integrated concept.

The modular TRIOPTICS product group OptiCentric® is able to measure nearly all types of lenses and optical systems from the tiniest and smallest endoscope systems to precision objectives weighting several hundred kilos for wafer steppers in the semiconductors industry.

The products of the OptiCentric® range are subdivided into:

 

OptiCentric® METRO - for Metrology and comprehensive measurement of optical systems

The capabilities of OptiCentric® METRO are not limited to the measurement of lens centration errors. Various enhancements and additional modules allow for measurement of many other optical parameters to be presented at the following pages.

 

OptiCentric® PRO - for Production and Assembly of objective lenses

 

OptiCentric® Max UltraPrecision
