Sensor Types

XYris Systems Series are all supplied with high precision sensors. 

CONFOCAL LASER (CL) Sensor

A very small (2 micron) spot size and 10nm resolution makes this sensor ideal for measuring the smallest of features (sub micron level). It is also capable of measuring the thickness of transparent layers and has an integral video microscope for targeting and operator feedback during setup and operation.

TRIANGULATION LASER (TL) Sensor

Ideally suited to more course applications where there is a large variance between the highest and lowest points on the surface or there are very steep features to be measured. This sensor has large gauge ranges (up to 2mm) and the twin detector configuration greatly improves receiving performances and reduces shadowing effects on heavily crenulated surfaces.

CONFOCAL WHITE LIGHT (WL) Sensor - Chromatic Sensor

This sensor offers small spot sizes* and high frequency** sample rates. Its’ high performance on spherical or aspherical surfaces make it idealy suited to applications where high accuracy measurement of curved surfaces is required.
