The focus will be on high-precision solutions for analysing surfaces, high-performance motion control systems and the integration of advanced measurement processes. In addition, Aerotech subsidiary Peak Metrology will be presenting innovative positioning systems that have been specially developed for large-scale inspection applications.

Precise measurement technology for large-format
Aerotech subsidiary Peak Metrology will also be at the stand to present a high-performance positioning system developed in cooperation with metrology specialist Keyence. Peak Metrology develops standard and customised equipment for high-precision measurement and inspection processes
"The market for digital microscopes is booming, but existing systems are quickly reaching their limits," explains RJ Hardt, President of Peak Metrology. "We offer our customers solutions that can also be used to measure larger parts."
The demo system at Control is an automated, non-contact 3D surface measuring device. It combines state-of-the-art laser line scanning technology with high-precision positioning stages for linear and rotary movements. The integrated Peak CaptureUI data acquisition and measurement software as well as the Peak Image topography analysis software enable detailed 3D surface profilometry and analysis in the micrometre range.
Thanks to its versatility, the system is ideal for precisely measuring and analysing surfaces of varying size and complexity in laboratory and production environments. The high-speed data acquisition almost reaches the fundamental limits of measurement accuracy and reliability. This is realised by combining first-class motion control devices with industry-leading measurement sensors and user friendly software tools.
High-performance positioning systems are particularly indispensable in quality assurance within the production line - for example in wafer inspection or the manufacture of flat screens.
