(Bruker Corp.: Tucson, AZ) -- Bruker Corp. has launched the NPFLEX-LA, the first noncontact, 3-D surface metrology system to provide quantitative lead angle and surface-texture measurements for the controlling and reducing fluid leaks of rotary dynamic sealing surfaces.

The NPFLEX-LA combines the intrinsic benefits of Bruker’s gage-capable, interferometry-based 3-D optical profiling technology with new metrology capabilities to measure both shaft lead angle and surface texture of sealing surfaces in a single, integrated solution.
