Measurement Sensor Positioning Equipment
Motorized positioning equipment for surface profiling and analysis
We manufacture motorized positioning stages and turn-key metrology tools for a variety of surface measurement applications.
Measurement sensors we integrate
Point
Laser, interferometric, and chromatic confocal point sensors. Ideal excellent accuracy and vertical resolution.
Line
Laser and confocal line profile sensors. These are ideal for high density data collection.
Area
White light interferometry and fringe projection area sensors. These work well when fast measurement times are desired.
Vision
Vision systems and cameras. Implemented for fiducial recognition, defect detection, and alignment processes.
Scanning stages
Product overview
Smaller, more cost effective, benchtop stages are ideal for process development or small batch manufacturing use cases. These stages are paired with a motion controller to make it easy for our customers to get moving quickly.
Motorized scanning
Precision motion stages maximize the repeatability and accuracy of the measurement sensor.
Linear or rotarty
Scan parts using translation or rotation stages depending on the measurement you are interested in.
Fast installation
Prewired control panels are supplied with the stage. Get up and measuring quickly.
Examples of our work
Video demonstration
Using a motorized stage to scan the surface of a part.

Profile measurement machines
Product overview
Our customers turn to us to design and build purpose-oriented surface measurement machinery. We integrate a wide range of commercially available sensors often preselected by our customers. Ultimately, we provide turn-key machines with operator control software and data output types that are meaningful to our users.
Profile Measurement
Multi-axis motorized positioning systems
We help you build a tool with as many axes of motion as needed.
Integrated surface measurement sensors
Our sensor library runs deep, and customers value the ability for us to work with a variety of different sensors at once.
Programmable user software interface
Our machine control and measurement planning software is powerful while still being easy to implement.
User specified data output file types
Our customers have different measurement needs. They value our ability to output the data in the way that is most meaningful to them.
Examples of our work
Machine example video
Laser line scanning tool used for measuring 3D profile and contour.

Thickness Measurement Machines
Our customers turn to us for true thickness measurements. This often means measuring both sides of a part’s surface simultaneously. This requires precision motion and stage to sensor alignments.
Product overview
Multi-axis motorized positioning systems
With top and bottom side part access design.
Total thickness variation (TTV) capable
Measuring areal thickness by synchronizing areal motion and data acquisition.
Programmable user software interface
Choose between areal surface profile data and true thickness data by a single mouse click.
Examples of our work
Machine example video
Laser scanning both sides of a surface to create a true thickness variation profile.

Machine control software
CaptureUI is a software application that enables automated scan control. At its core, CaptureUI brings sensor data acquisition and precision motion control together so that you don’t have to.
Scan planning
Use graphical tools to plan the scan path and data acquisition sequence. Save recipe files to be used over and over. Operator friendly tools.
Sensor management
Built-in sensor handling tools to make integrating a single or many sensors easy.
Machine coordination
Choose how you want the data and the machine will sync data acquisition and motorized positioning for you.
Measurement analysis
Output the scan data to many supported tools for full analysis of the results.
Working with us
We will consult with you throughout every step of the process. This will reduce your risk and makes sure the machine meets all of your requirements.
Application consultation
Our team will learn about your needs, make suggestions, and test your application in our lab as necessary.
Design engineering
You will use our engineering resources as an extension of your project team. We design the equipment while pulling from our experience.
Tool manufacturing
We manufacture the tool to completion within our large production facilities.
Acceptance and installation
We prove that the equipment meets your needs prior to shipment and after it arrives.
