We are pleased to announce the launch of the Zygo NewView 600, a highly affordable 3D optical profiler for research, development and production.

The NewView™ 600s offers high-precision scanning, simplified operation, configuration flexibility, and advanced surface characterization - including comprehensive surface texture, step-height, PSD analysis, and much more.

If you are new to interferometry and optical metrology and want to know how interferometers work, what they can do for you and how they can improve your production, R&D or QA process then visit this page. It provides detailed information on the prinicpal behind the instruments, what they can measure and lists a few of the vast number of applications they are used in.

We are offering researchers, developers and manufacturing personnel engaged in inspection and quality assurance the opportunity to have their samples measured using the very latest high speed high precision non-contact surface profile measurement systems.

Our 3D imaging systems can acquire up to 1 million data points in seconds from components with spherical and/or planar surfaces with a higher degree of precision than conventional mechanical methods including CMM and profilers. We are able to measure deviation from spherical/planar form, volumetric wear, surface texture/roughness and machining marks on a wide variety of materials including paper, glass, polymers, steel, copper, silicon, silicon oxide/nitride, ceramics etc.

Here's why it's the best...
Fastest scan speed and largest scan range in the industry!
Highest precision and resolution in its class!

ZYGO's NewView series of optical profilers measure and quantify surface roughness, step heights, critical dimensions, and surface topography, with an unmatched speed and precision. Based on noncontact and patented scanning white-light technology, the NewView delivers best-in-class 3D surface metrology for applications in production, QC and leading research. A full suite of 2D and 3D surface analysis tools are available for comprehensive data analysis, visualization, and reporting.

The NewView 7000 series of 3D optical profilers builds on proven Zygo technology and experience to provide a Metrology system capable of fast non-contact measurements at Sub-nanometer Z resolution with Leading-edge XY precision. Surfaces with features of size up to 20mm in Z and 150mm in X and Y can be quantified in seconds.

The most advanced series of Optical profilers available today has applications in a wide range of manufacturing industry: Aerospace, Optics, Semiconductors, Automation, Diamond Turning, general manufacturing and R&D!

FlashPhase is a new product from Zygo that enables measurements to be made using just one frame of interference pattern information to make the measurement. It can be used to enhance new Zygo systems by enabling them to perform dynamic interferometry in high vibration environments. It can also be used to upgrade visual only interferometers to "number" producing systems with MetroPro software.

The PTI 250™ line is a family of 25-mm aperture interferometers that provide full 3D surface and wavefront maps, and radius of curvature measurements, of lenses and lens systems. These systems are Fizeau interferometers and are designed and built using the same successful methods as ZYGO's widely used GPI™ and VeriFire™ interferometer systems.

PTI 250 systems feature proven ZYGO measurement technology and are reliable, easy to use, and an excellent return on your investment. They are equally well suited for process control in high-volume production, or demanding research in an R&D lab.

The GPI family of Fizeau interferometers provides noncontact measurement of flat or spherical surfaces, and transmitted wavefront measurement of optical components and assemblies. Flatness of optical or engineering surfaces can be measured as can sphericity and radius of curvature. Aspheres and cylinders can also be measured. A wide range of operational features, data analysis capabilities, and accessories (for expanded measurement capability) are available - as are a variety of measurement wavelengths. From basic visual fringe inspection - to phase-shifting, high-resolution measurements with computerized data analysis - to Custom GPI Solutions - the GPI family has it all.

The new range of VeriFire™ Fizeau interferometers from Zygo provide you with the next-generation interferometer family. ZYGO has recreated the interferometer for the highest level of commercial performance and the fastest methods to acquire results. Combining unique illumination, revolutionary data acquisition, and a finely tuned electro-optical imaging system, the VeriFire range provides you with the technical excellence you expect from ZYGO.The VeriFire(tm) AT reduces system artifacts to provide the cleanest, high-resolution data for precision optical component testing. The VeriFire(tm) MST allows the measurement of 2, 3 or 4 surfaces simultaneously thereby enabling measurement of flat parallel plates that exhibit internal fringes, such as etalons, without messy and complex measurement procedures.

ZYGO's ZMI Displacement Measuring Interferometers (DMI) are the worldwide price & performance benchmarks for position measurement feedback. ZYGO's ZMI product line offers the broadest range of price and performance available today while continuing to add significant new innovations. ZYGO's products are advanced enough to meet your next generation requirements, today. ZYGO is the technology and application support leader in heterodyne displacement interferometry.

The MESA Flatness Measuring Gage provides fast, repeatable and accurate non-contract measurements on a wide variety of engineering and high quality surfaces. It provides feedback to grinding, honing, polishing, lapping and super-finishing process, permitting these machines to produce more consistent and reliable parts. MESA extends the flatness measurement range while maintaining the inherent advantages of interferometer measurement techniques. These advantages include high throughput, full 3-D surface analysis, high data point density, high resolution and excellent measurement repeatability and reproducibility for the finest GR & R results.
