In industries where surface quality is crucial to product performance, precision measurement is essential. Whether you’re in manufacturing, engineering, or material science, accurate surface profiling tools are a must. That’s where Profilm3D comes in. Offered by Omniscan, Profilm3D is a state-of-the-art surface profiler that provides high-precision, 3D surface analysis for a wide range of applications. Discover what Profilm3D is, how it works, and why it’s the ultimate surface profiling solution for various industries.
What is Profilm3D?
Profilm3D is a high-performance surface profiling system available through Omniscan. It delivers precise, 3D surface measurements using non-contact optical technology, making it ideal for a range of applications that require detailed surface analysis. Whether you’re evaluating surface roughness, texture, or topography, Profilm3D offers the accuracy and versatility needed to achieve outstanding results.
This advanced profiler utilises white light interferometry enabling it to capture detailed surface data without physical contact. Its non-contact nature is particularly beneficial when working with delicate or fragile materials that might be damaged by traditional contact-based measurement methods.
How Does it Work?
Profilm3D uses advanced optical technologies to capture the surface features of materials. By illuminating the surface and analysing the reflected light, surface profilers creates highly detailed, high-resolution 3D surface maps. These surface maps are then processed to extract key parameters, such as surface roughness, waviness, and texture.
Unlike traditional contact-based profilometers, which can be slow and risk damaging the material, Profilm3D operates without touching the surface. This makes it a perfect solution for delicate materials, coatings, or complex geometries, ensuring reliable, accurate measurements every time.
