Our focus is on non-contact measurements with emphasis on optical and laser measurements. The applications are covering a very broad field that can be found in scientific and fundamental metrology, within applied, technical or industrial fields and legal & forensic applications. Optical and laser measurements can generally be divided into three basic activities; – definition of internationally accepted units of measurement – realisation of these units of measurement in practice – application of chains of traceability linking to reference standards

Optical surface profilers
The instruments are high-precision and non-contact tools for characterizing the surface topography in 3D. The highlights are: areal measurement with nm vertical resolution, large field-of-view (FOV) for large samples, measure hard-to-reach areas like holes, fast measurement for short cycle times. TopMap systems measures parameters like step-height, waviness, flatness, parallelism, as well as roughness
Laser Vibrometry
Polytecs` wide range of laser vibrometers are acknowledged as gold-standard for non-contact vibration measurement. Laser-Doppler vibrometers analyze samples of different size, from entire car bodies, large aerospace parts over engines and actuators to micron-sized MEMS or delicate HDD components.
Spectroscopy
Portable & compact miniature spectrometers with fiber optics for UV, VIS, and NIR measurements in the 190-2300 nm range. Complete systems and application specific solutions range is broad.
Laser Sensors
Acuity’s laser measurement sensors and laser scanners are precision devices based on non-contact measurement principle. This includes laser triangulation solutions, pulsed time-of-flight sensors, confocal displacement sensors for dimension, thickness or roughness measurements and
2D/3D laser line sensors
