The most versatile optical 3D measurement system in its classThe Alicona FocusX is an all-in-one universal optical three-dimensional measuring device that can simultaneously and traceably measure dimension, position, shape and roughness using one optical sensor. It also features “One Click Roughness Measurement” providing simple ISO-compliant roughness measurementUsing advanced focus variation, and vertical surface profiling it provides high-resolution 3D measurement and detailed surface characterisation in the μm and sub-μm range“How do I measure?” to “What do I measure?” is the core thinking behind MetMaX, the FocusX operating software. This allows users without any metrology knowledge to perform robust measurements set up from CAD and working with Digital Twins to create automated regimeAdding a rotation device to the Alicona FocusX creates a 5-axis machine , allowing the full geometry measurement of cylindrical products such as cutting tools and fuel injection nozzlesApplication areas commonly in use include Precision Manufacturing, Cutting Tools, Aerospace, Automotive, Medical, Electroforming, both on the shop floor and in the measurement roomIdeal for small and high precision parts, the FocusX is used within aerospace, automotive and precision manufacturing industries. It's more compact than the popular Alicona InfiniteFocus G6, but does not compromise on quality and continues to provide exceptional results time and time again.

Turn any SEM into a non-contact optical 3D metrology deviceScanning electron microscopes (SEM) use a focused beam of electrons to scan surfaces and generate quality images of sample materials and components. By integrating your digital imaging SEM with MeX, a standalone software package, you can turn it into a true surface metrology device for detailed optical inspection and testingAlicona MeX uses stereoscopic images to automatically retrieve 3D information and presents a highly accurate, robust and dense 3D dataset. Once generated the 3D dataset can be used to perform a reliable and traceable metrology examination of the componentThanks to MeX, the SEM magnification is irrelevant and non-contact measurements can be taken on a macro and micro level without the need for any additional hardware. Measure height and roughness to EN ISO 4287/4288 standards, understand the volume of voids and protrusions and analyse area measurements with unrivalled detailFeaturing an AutoCalibration routine, MeX will automatically refine data for traceable 3D measurements. Turn any SEM into a non-contact optical 3D metrology device with Alicona MeX.

Ideal for assesment of surface damage and finish and quality control applications
Very latest generation, building on the very successful G5 series Revolutionary MetMax Software Platform & larger capacity.

Entry-level portable roughness measuring instrumentThe Mahr MarSurf PS10 is an entry-level tactile stylus based surface measurement device that is both intuitive and simple to use, for high precision surface measurement of most surfaces. It features a removable drive unit and TFT touch display which can be turned in any direction, making the MarSurf PS10 ideal for use in production manufacturing applicationsThe small and lightweight design ensures roughness measurements can be taken anywhere within the facility, yet it has the same range of functionality as a laboratory-based instrumentMeasuring records can be saved as PDF files in the instrument itself (up to 1500) or transferred using MarCom for long-term storage.Stylus method measuring principle with either 2μm probe as default or option of 5μm probe depending on the application.

The latest edition for 2020 – that’s metrology!

Mobile, high resolution measurement

Stable 3D measurements from development to production
Understanding surface roughness and the impact it might have on precision manufactured components can help improve the quality levels achieved by your business. To measure and inspect surface roughness, our range of Alicona, Mahr and Optivu products are on hand to give you highly accurate results time and again.
Optimax supplies a large range of non-contact optical metrology devices to measure all aspects of surface roughness (Ra, Rq, Rz/Sa, Sq, Sz). Generate a complete analysis of a components surface using true colour, exceptional clarity and high resolution.
Test and inspect components as they’re manufactured, or use our range of surface roughness tools to understand the impact of wear and tear or long-term use as part of a regular testing and inspection routine.
