SurfaceView Flatness Measurement Software

Flatness measurements are made as a series of single angle measurements at specified locations.  Electronic autocollimators are some of the most accurate instruments for the small angle measurements required for a flatness measurement.

  • Docs/Downloads

Product Description

Our software, SurfaceView, records all the measurements and calculates the surface profile accurately. SurfaceView is designed specifically to help the user make a surface plate calibration that conforms to Federal Specification GGG-P-463c, the standard for surface plates. SurfaceView also allows users to make other, less stringent measurements during production or for a routine check.

Electronic autocollimator measurements can be recorded by SurfaceView automatically and remotely. The user need only move the mirror to the next measurement position.

Other autocollimators or electronic levels can also be used, or data can be entered manually.

Customer focus is really appreciated, and unfortunately too rare. I loved dealing with your company… The collimator worked flawlessly out-of-box, as compared to the previous one from another company that I never could get comfortable with in 18 years!

The modifications were very nicely done and we are now able to measure to the center of an eight inch plate, which we’ve long wanted to do. The new software and user interface is great. It’s very easy to learn and operate and our work gets done much faster than before.
