Metrology. Optical Systems for Laser-Based Measurements.
SwissOptic AG manufactures optical systems for innovative, laser-based measurement techniques that can be used to precisely determine both angle and dimension as well as 3D coordinates.
As a reliable development and manufacturing partner for serial products within the measurement industry, we possess a comprehensive understanding of the systems employed in this segment. We manufacture and assemble all opto-mechanical submodules for the corresponding system and conduct measurement and functional tests.
With our lenses for aerial cameras, opto-mechanical modules for laser trackers, transceivers for 3D measurement systems or internal triple reflectors, we provide an essential contribution to our customers with respect to absolutely precise measurement.
From concept to model, from prototype to volume production - we offer you the entire value chain from a single source.

Industrial Measurement Technologies
Interferometer lenses from SwissOptic are used by our partner Mahr GmbH in the novel “MarSurf TWI 60” tilted wave interferometer (TWI) in order to quickly and flexibly measure aspheres and free-form surfaces.
Key characteristics of the 4” interferometer lens with f/0.74 include:
- Operational wavelength of 532 nm
- Input aperture of 4“ = 101.6 mm
- F-number of f/0.74
- Can be used both along axes and at field angles of up to ±7.5°.
- Calibrating the entire interferometer system requires good wavefront quality with a low mid-frequency share of errors.
Areas of application:
- Interferometer lens systems
- Reference surfaces
- Transmission flats
- Aspherical lenses
