Äpre Instruments Introduces New Affordable, High Performance Interferometer
S100 | HR model offers accurate, fast measurement and custom reporting
Äpre Instruments, a leader in interferometry for research, quality control and high volume production, introduced today their new S100 | HR high performance laser Fizeau interferometer for optical manufacturing.
"For companies looking to scale up, metrology is a serious investment, and the S100 | HR helps break down the barriers to producing more, higher quality optics. Were excited to offer a system that meets the demands of todays optical manufacturer without breaking their budget," ÄPRE President Robert Smythe said. "As high performance spheres, aspheres and even freeform surfaces become the new normal, manufacturers need test equipment that is up to the challenge."
Using ÄPREs REVEALâ„¢ software, the S100 | HR can provide custom reports in as few as six seconds. The system runs on any 64-bit Windows® OS, 64-bit power that supports 4-megapixel acquisition and analysis.
Other benefits include:
Diffraction limited, 4-megapixel imaging
Better than λ/20 accuracy, even at 8 fringes/mm slopes
Vibration tolerant PSI and vibration insensitive carrier fringe acquisition
Äpre Instruments is now accepting orders for the S100 | HR Fizeau Interferometer. Visit http://www.apre-inst.com for more information.

Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
