The problem:
Some materials, such as soft materials and rubber
replicas, are not feasible to map or measure using contact-based
methods. LTC's Laser MicroMap™
system provides an excellent non-contact measurement solution.
The solution:
Commercial casting compounds can be used to make a
replica of the target surface. LTC's benchtop 3D Profiler is ideal for
non-contact measurement of replica surfaces, providing
accurate and quantitative 3D images and tabular documentation of
component surface geometry.
Our versatile LaserViewer™ software may then be used to measure feature geometry, or the data can be exported to another scientific
software package for further analysis. LTC's Laser MicroMap™
system with the 3D Profiler has been proven with a variety of
casting compounds, including Reprorubber™ and Facsimile™.
