FRT CFP - Confocal Point Sensor - Non-contact, high-resolution laserlight measurement
A punctiform laser beam gets focused by an oscillating lens on the surface of the object. The reflected light get focused on a pinhole and enters a detector.

Only if the object‘s surface is in the focal position, the detector receives a significant signal. The information on the corresponding height at the measuring point is obtained from the z-position of the oscillating lens.

Measuring Principle
 
  • non-contact measurement
  • high-resolution measurement
  • precise results even with changes in the surface
    reflectance at different measurement positions
  • fast measurements even on surfaces with very low reflectance
