Measurement of Plano Optics

 
The addition of a software module-belonging to OptiAngle® (another subsystem of OptiTest®) and the use of specific mechanical fixtures converts the OptiSpheric® to a powerful tool for angle measurement of:
 
  • wedges and filters;
  • 90°-prisms;
  • parallelism of plane plates;
  • deviation angle through wedges and prisms;
  • mirror tilt;
  • alignment of CD-optical heads;
  • wobble of rotating glass disks;
     
    The angle measurements of plano optics are made directly with the autocollimator of the measuring head (without additional head lenses). The mechanical fixtures includes three-ball supports, prism fixtures, etc. to be mounted on the instrument tilt table.

    OptiSpheric® - Universal Measuring Tool for Lenses and Optical Systems
    Measurement of centering errors

     
    The unique performance can be further increased by adding software modules and accessories from OptiCentric® (another subsystem of OptiTest®).
     
    Applications include measurement of centering errors in transmission and reflection. Using appropriate accessories even the alignment or cementing of optics can be carried out. With this extension of the measuring capabilities the OptiSpheric® becomes a valuable and indispensable quality tool for any optical shop or laboratory. The largest range of accessories for accurate and efficient measurement of centering errors are available: precision rotary holders, lens rotation devices with vacuum, ultra precision air bearing tables, etc. Illumination devices have been specifically designed to provide reliable results even in difficult applications as surfaces with AR-coating. The software module provides fast and accurate results, shows the size and direction of the decentration and evaluates even extremely weak and blurred images.

     
    Multi-Wavelength measurement capabilities
     
    To respond to industry requirements for providing measurement capabilities at different wavelengths, TRIOPTICS developed a version of OptiSpheric® able to measure almost of the optical parameters at different wavelengths: 400nm, 546nm, 650nm and 780nm.
     
    A Filter Changer equipped with interference filters selects the required wavelength. A focusable telescope is calibrated for each wavelength. A colored mark on the telescope helps the operator to set the telescope optics at the selected wavelength. The high resolution CCD-camera mounted on the telescope provides via frame grabber and specific software fast and accurate measuring results.
