Optics Surface Finish & Form Measurement Equipment
The Form Talysurf® PGI Optics contact stylus optical profilometer, measures surface finish & form of Optical components, from a large diameter lens with large SAG to small low SAG plastic lenses.
Producing high accuracy measurements on spherical, diffractive, fresnel and aspheric lenses up to 300 mm diameter (single trace) as well as more complex surfaces such as cylinders and freeforms. The system is also capable of measuring both IR (infra red), visible substrates and mirror optics.
These capabilities make the Form Talysurf® PGI Optics the goto instrument for optical manufacturers.
A fast, high accuracy measurement system for precision optics.
Following its first release in 1984, the Form Talysurf® quickly became the number one choice for optics manufacturers measuring aspheric form error. Since then, we have installed thousands across the world, making the Form Talysurf® PGI a true industry standard.
Our patented PGI (Phase Grating Interferometer) technology enables you to measure large sags with short length styli for the highest accuracy measurements. These Taylor Hobson manufactured styli combine very high stiffness and low force, which delivers much greater accuracy and repeatability than comparable products.
