Have you ever used a conventional CNC video inspection system and thought, "This could be so much better if the entire part could be seen at once, with the highest possible resolution"? We did, and we applied our insight to every facet of inspection technology. The results speak for themselves: we will never stop asking how we can make a good thing better.


The Precision Collet Set has a range 1mm to 10mm allowing users to load mandrels any diameter within that range.



For cylindrical parts we offer a high precision servo rotary stage. This stage has 0.0005 degree encoder resolution and super smooth servo controlled rotary motion for accurate highly detailed scans of cylindrical objects. This rotary stage is the engine at the heart of the highly successful Visicon Stent Inspection System.



Used to make detailed surface images for surface defect/flaw detection.

Multi-Use Single Head
From sub-microns to meters, you can do the job using a single ConoProbe head by changing the objective lens. So instead of buying several complete instruments, you need to purchase only one ConoProbe head with a variety of lenses.

Dynamic Range
The ConoProbe head maintains high precision and repeatability over a wide working range. In most cases, the precision and repeatability is better than 1/8000th of the working range, in contrast to 1/1000th as with most other systems.

  • Surface Independent
  • Variable Surface Reflectivity
  • Reflective surface textures measured accurately
  • No need for painting or resurfacing!

Grazing Incidence Measurement
The ConoProbe head is able to measure at angles very close to grazing incidence. The Forbidden Zone extends only 5 degrees from normal incidence from all directions, giving ConoProbe a significant advantage over other measurement systems.

Bore Holes and Hard-to-Measure Geometries
This is where the ConoProbe excels and other non-contact measurement technologies fail. The ConoProbe combines co-linearity with bending/relay optics to measure deep, narrow grooves and holes.

Precision and Repeatability
The ConoProbe maintains high precision and repeatability over a wide working range. In most cases, the repeatability is better than 1/8000th of the working range, and the precision is better than 1/2000th.

Cost Efficiency
From sub-microns to meters, a single ConoProbe head can be used just by changing the objective lens. With competing sensors you must buy several complete instruments. With Optimet you purchase a variety of lenses for a single sensor.

  • Outstanding versatility in working range and standoffs
  • No need to change sensors!
  • Only a simple change of the front lens varies the measurement range and standoff of the probe.
