Optimet Industrial

Who are we? Optimet (Optical Metrology) product line was founded in 1995 by Ophir Optronics Solutions. Ophir Optronics, now a part of MKS Instruments, is a global leader in precision IR optics, laser measurement instrumentation and 3D non-contact measurement equipment. Optimet develops and manufactures non-contact distance measurement sensors based on the patented Conoscopic Holography technology. Introduction to Conoscopic Holography Conoscopic Holography measures distances by using the polarization properties of a converging light cone that reflects from an object. At the core of the technology...

Our advantages Optimet’s sensors are based on the unique and patented Conoscopic Holography technology, which is advantageous over standard distance measurement methods used for various industrial applications. The sensors are reliable, accurate and contain no moving parts. Our technology has major benefits when integrated in measurement systems compared to the standard triangulation method. Two major advantages are: • Collinearity: our sensor's outgoing laser beam share the same optical axis as the reflected signal. This collinearity allows the sensor to measure inside holes, through folding...

Applications There is a growing need for improved measurement solutions which offer higher precision, speed and accuracy that will provide better in-process inspection measurements, resulting in lower manufacturing costs and improved products. Optimet's innovative sensors overcome the limitations of many existing measurement devices, in many cases providing the only comprehensive solution for complex measurement problems. Optimet has a great variety of sensor configurations which address a large number of demands of metrological measurements associated with many kinds of material surfaces. For...

B. Laser engraving measurement Measurement of Laser Engraved Objects Engravers use a hardened steel tool to engrave the design into the surface. Using Optimet's noncontact distance sensor allows the user to accurately measure the depth of the engraved area. Due to its wide angle coverage the Optimet sensors is capable of measuring engraved objects that other sensors cannot. C. Glass screen scratch inspection In a world dominated by cellphones and display screens, the inspection of scratches is crucial for yield and profit. Scratch properties such as depth and width determine if the screen can...

E. CAD compare Comparing CAD models of free form bodies to the actual dimensions, measured by a high precision sensor, can turn out to be a very complex task. The comparison is usually addressed in the areas of R&D, manufacturing and QC processes in various industrial applications such as casting, forging, welding and metal sheet forming. The CAD compare process is used in a wide range of industries from turbine blades and aerospace components to automotive engine body structure and transmission parts. The capability of comparing is particularly very important in the mold-manufacturing field...

Tire sipes, characterized by narrow deep channels, and tire grooves, characterized by wide and deep features, have both steep angles (usually above 75°). To obtain a precise measurement of the angles, a collinear measurement is required, Thus, ensuring that the signal originating from the groove or sipe base is not disturbed by the side walls. Using Optimet's sensor, provides the solution. Auto-exposure is a unique feature in Optimet’s sensors and can be used when measuring highly variable reflective surfaces as shown below. Pink signal (left) indicates insufficient data. Scan without auto-exposure...

ConoPoint-10 SMART Sensor Laser displacement sensor with SMART technology inside The ConoPoint-10 Smart sensor is the first sensor in a new family of Optimet's Non-Contact Laser Displacement Sensors. The new Smart technology contains a rich set of algorithms which makes integration easy and provides pass/fail results rather than a simple displacement value. The ConoPoint-10 Smart sensor measures 10,000 points/sec and retains all of Optimet advantages. This new sensor allows fast 2D profile measurement, analysis and feature evaluation. The built in Smart technology also provide a standalone sensor using...
