Carl Zeiss launches a metrology laboratory for measurement of Micron and nanometer
April 30, 2009
Carl zeiss has recently opened in Oberkochen (Germany) a new metrology laboratory equipped with cut-off machines range, where it will be possible to measure Micron and nanometer with maximum precision. As a reference laboratory, its main function will be calibrate machines Zeiss measurement, patterns and measurements for external customers. This laboratory will also be a demonstration room for ultra precision equipment. The specialists working there with the best machines developed by Carl Zeiss and under very special conditions. The temperature of the laboratory, controlled by its own air conditioning system, should not deflect more than 0.1 ° ideal temperature of 20 ° Celsius. The laboratory of metrology in its entirety has been credited each year by DKD (German calibration service) as a center of measurement traceability.
A Zeiss UPMC Ultra coordinate measurement machine is used for calibrations and measurements of high precision has an uncertainty of a few tenths of micra.

The laboratory also has a perfilometer-roughness of high-end Surfcom 5000, with a system of probe by Interferometer laser that offers a resolution of just 0.30 nanometers.
