Automatic Calibration
Verification through height measurement
Height measurements with the AutoCalibration can be verified using a micro-contour-artefact that is calibrated by the PTB (Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig). The depth measurement standard from the PTB contains grooves of different depth (from 240nm to 50µm).
- The unique AutoCalibration works fully automatically. Alicona is the only supplier able to offer this technology.
- MeX is the only real metrology package that allows numerically accurate measurements independent on the magnification.
- MeX allows extended analysis features such as ISO conform roughness analysis and extended form analysis.

Verification through radius measurement
Measurements of the pure software solution MeX can be verified using a micro-contour-artefact that is calibrated by the PTB (Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig).The artefact contains different regions including steep flanks, height steps and cylindrical elements.
The following measurements can be verified:
- Circle measurements
- Steep flanks
- Depth measurements
| PTB | Stereo Creator | Auto Calib |
| 80µm ± 2µm | 75.11µm | 81,14µm |
