About Us
Intelligent Systems and Solutions for Industrial Metrology and Inspection
Agility with purpose has defined our journey from the start. We aim to inspire and challenge our customers, encouraging the exploration of solutions beyond traditional legacy expectations. As passionate innovators, we are proud to be the first organisation to achieve UKAS accreditation for ISO 10360-7 (CMM with optical probe) and more recently for optical shaft instruments. This stands as clear proof of our expertise in Optical Metrology.
Our mission is simple, to advance the understanding of Optical Metrology in industrial applications. This deep internal knowledge allows us to support your everyday calibration needs and assist customers who are pushing the limits of precision engineering.
We have long believed that Optical would outshine legacy measurement technologies. Its strengths, including high data density, non-contact operation, speed and resolution, are now fully enabled by modern PC architecture. The future of measurement is bright.
It is a privilege to lead Optimax with an exceptional team. We look forward to welcoming you to our Metrology Suite and sharing our passion for precision.

Established in 2002, we've grown from a calibration specialist into a trusted provider of inspection and metrology solutions. From our Market Harborough facility, we support customers nationwide with expert knowledge, UKAS calibration, and advanced optical technologies.
Advancing Measurement
We achieved UKAS 17025 accreditation in 2014 for the calibration of profile projectors and microscopes, later becoming the first UK company certified to ISO 10360-7 for video measurement systems. We added Optical Shaft Measurement, another first in our industry ensuring every calibration meets UKAS-approved standards.
