(Alicona: Bartlett, IL) -- Alicona is now marketing the IF-Portable (figure 1) and the Edgemaster (figure 2) for 3-D surface measurement. Both are based on Alicona’s FocusVariation technology.

The IF Portable is a mobile optical measurement system to measure form and roughness on larger surfaces. It is also used as a production tool for quality assurance. The Portable can be used to measure flat and curved surfaces. A key application is platen inspection in the print industry, but it can be applied to any task where small measurements on large surfaces are required.

The EdgeMaster is an optical 3-D measurement system to automatically measure the cutting edges of inserts and tools in production. It is used to measure form, radii, and chipping regardless of a tool’s type, size, material, or surface finish. The EdgeMaster is the only system that will also provide traceable roughness measurement. Automatic measurement results are made within 20 seconds and no pretreatment of the surface is required.
