OptiCentric^® SMART

The conceptual design of OptiCentric^® SMART is made to measure large quantities of the same type of single lenses in reflection. However OptiCentric^® SMART can be used as well for the cementing of lenses.

OptiCentric^® SMART is a cost-effective compact test station with an electronic measuring head and a motorized axis for focusing the measuring head. All the essential functions are integral to the standard instrument. The high-power LED illumination and control are integrated in the measuring head. The electronic autocollimator has an effective focal length of 150 mm and a slightly reduced resolution compared to the autocollimators used in OptiCentric^® MOT.

OptiCentric^® SMART is available with both versions of the vacuum lens rotation device and is ideal for investigating the centering errors of single lenses and for cementing doublets or triplets in a production environment. The travel of the motorized focusing stage is 250 mm. The centering error measurement is accurate to 0.2 μm.

The standard OptiCentric^® SMART comes with a single measuring head. As an option it is possible to mount a second measuring head underneath the sample on the base of the instrument. This measuring head enables the simultaneous measurement of the bottom surface of the sample. However, the optional attachment only has a manual focus range of +/- 10 mm. Due to the short focusing range a large range of head lenses is neccessary. The control and analysis of the instrument is carried out using the standard OptiCentric^® software.
