Novelties at Control 2010

Geometries become smaller and more complex, tolerances tighter and the traceable quality assurance has become an existential question. With the Focus-Variation technology Alicona offers a non-contact measurement technique. One technology, several variations – the answer to the demand for faster, high resolution and traceable measurements in production.


The IF Portable…

is lightweight, roust, mobile, fast and quite cost effective usable. The system is developed for mobile usage instead of a permanently installed solution. A mobile and flexible measurement station which is can be used wherever it is needed.

The IF EdgeMaster…

is a system for fully automated measurements of form, rounded edges and chipping along the edge of inserts in production. Clearance, wedge and chipping angle, chipping, positive and negative bevel as well as basket arch are measured.

A real „production professional“:


  • Measures every edge in high resolution
  • measures across large vertical scan ranges
  • is insensitive against ambient light
  • is usable for various forms and size of inserts
  • measurements are done in approx. 20 seconds

InfiniteFocus Real 3D…

now shows the reality from all directions.

As often said, one of the biggest advantages of optical measurement technique is the depicted reality. To see a surface as it really is opens completely new opportunities evaluations for manufacturers. Nevertheless, up to now the metrological recording of a surface in 3D was restricted to the aspect of topography. The surface is measured and visualized from every point of view. A rotation unit which rotates drills, milling cutters and other rotation symmetric components around 360° allows the complete form measurement for the first time.

3d micro-coordinate measurement technique for roughness and form measurement

Alicona offers optical 3d surface measurement systems for quality assurance in research and production. Core competence is the measurement of roughness and form also across large measurement areas and volumes. The cutting edge measurement and the measurement of small radii and angles are typical applications. Focus-Variation, the core technique of the InfiniteFocus line, combines the traditional surface metrology and the micro coordinate measurement technology. This technology achieves traceable and repeatable results in highest resolution even in production.
