Advantages

extremely quick and easy measurement procedure since the sample does not need to be perfectly square to the autocollimator axis;

significantly increased accuracy due to the use of the computerised autocollimator instead of the visual autocollimator and the use of the air bearing with a radial run out of 0.05µm which allows the encoder to deliver highest accuracy;

measurement accuracy is not dependent on the operator qualification or tiredness;

it enables the measurement of small or anti-reflex coated samples since the HR-CCD is able to process weak images;

double measurement sensitivity in transmission mode;

dramatically improved accuracy for pyramidal error due to the extremely small axial run out of the air bearing (0.05 µm);

advanced software under WINDOWS/WINDOWS NT with full capabilities to store, export, print out the data and produce measurement certificates;

The advanced software is designed to work under all Windows operating systems and fulfils the need of the optical shop for easy, intuitive operation. It offers a high level of speed and accuracy and provides consistent, reliable results.

The software powering the PrismMaster® is the heart of the system and integrates the TRIOPTICS long experience and efforts in ultra-accurate angle measurement. The multiple window design allows the operator to select the windows of interest, to place these on the monitor in the preferred position and to store the selection for further use.

The most comprehensive applications software related to prisms and polygon measurement includes modules for measurment in reflection or transmission mode, for automated or manual measurement process, for measurement of pyramidal errors in different modes.

For the fully automated measurement of prisms and polygons, a set up table allows the operator to establish the measurement sequence, the number of angles to be measured and the speed of the measurement. The software lets the operator customize and automate the measurement process and save the process data for further use.

The operator handles most of the tasks with the easy to use interface. Many options can be activated in order to adapt the measuring procedure to the sample properties, so that even sample with anti-reflex coating, very small components or other difficult sample can be measured fast and reliable.

The Measurement Certificate provides data in different units (arcsec, µrad, degreemin- arcsec, etc) and statistical evaluation of the results.
