Precise length measurement – non-contact and inline:
Our LSV Laser Surface Velocimeters automatically determine length based on the actual feed speed as the material passes the measurement point. Even in red-hot, harsh production environments, these robust laser-based inline sensors deliver reliable measurement results at all times.

A typical application is cut-to-length control in flame cutting systems (see image), where even glowing slabs are cut precisely to size. The optical measurement principle eliminates slip and wear, as the measurement is performed without contact with the material.

Our LSV systems have proven themselves worldwide—for example in rolling mills, continuous casting, and high-temperature applications. Integration into PLC and production systems is straightforward via standard interfaces.

VibroScan expands into high-resolution micro-scale measurements:
With the new microscope extension, VibroScan scanning vibrometers can now capture vibrations at the micro scale with exceptional precision. An adapter for microscope objectives unlocks reliable measurements on even the smallest structures.

Laser spot sizes below 2 µm (at 10× magnification) reveal fine details, local modes, and complex resonance behavior—ideal for microstructures and meso-scale components.

What this means for your measurements:
✔️ Maximum spatial resolution with high magnification.
✔️ Clear visibility through coaxial LED illumination.
✔️ Flexible use of different microscope objectives.
✔️ Seamless integration into VibroScan systems and PSV software.

360° vibration measurements—fully automated! The new RoboVib® Bench Test Station simplifies experimental modal analysis by combining a motorized rotary table with a 3D Scanning Laser Vibrometer.

The test object rotates in defined angular steps while the vibrometer captures vibration data from every direction—creating a complete, high-resolution 3D vibration dataset without repositioning the sensor setup.

Your advantages at a glance:
• Automated 360° vibration measurements
• No manual repositioning of the measurement system
• Non-contact measurement—no mass loading or cabling
• Seamless integration into CAE-based modal analysis workflows with FE models and test geometries

A smarter way to perform experimental modal testing—faster, more precise, and fully automated.

A masterpiece can last for centuries—yet suffer serious damage during a single transport. Famous artworks travel the world to inspire people. But the journey itself can pose real risks.

During transport, vibrations act on the canvas and layers of paint for hours. Even the smallest oscillations can stress delicate structures—especially in priceless masterpieces like the paintings of Georgia O’Keeffe.

That is why conservators and researchers carefully study how artworks respond to these stresses.

Laser Doppler Vibrometers from Polytec make even the smallest movements visible—non-contact and with extreme precision. This allows experts to identify critical resonances and optimize transport solutions before a work of art begins its journey—helping ensure it arrives safely.

Because culture is one of a kind—measure what matters.

3000 °C—and still measuring vibrations with precision?
When components become white-hot, conventional sensors reach their limits—or even distort results due to their own mass.

A halogen filament at 2700–3000 °C reveals what really happens under extreme conditions:
➡️ Resonance frequencies shift to lower values
➡️ Damping increases
➡️ The material softens significantly

The solution: Non-contact vibration measurement using Laser Doppler Vibrometry with QTec® technology.
It delivers precise, high-quality data—even on glowing-hot surfaces—without mass loading and with superior noise suppression.

👉 This measurement was performed as part of our PolyMeasure service—delivering end-to-end vibration analysis from data acquisition through evaluation, with reliable results even under extreme conditions.

How can you efficiently automate the vibration analysis of MEMS in the cleanroom – down to the wafer level?
With the Polytec MSA Micro System Analyzers, this is now even easier:
The systems are now also available in an ISO-3 certified cleanroom configuration and support script and recipe control for automated measurement sequences.

The result:
Complete wafer maps can be processed automatically – including positioning, autofocus, frequency sweep and mode shape scan. In this way, MEMS components can be reproducibly analyzed from the single die to the entire wafer and integrated into fab-controlled workflows.

Because precision unlocks new worlds—measure what matters.

NASA’s six-wheeled Mars rover Curiosity explores the Red Planet through dust storms and extreme cold, far beyond any chance of repair. To analyze Martian soil, it relies on a vibrating funnel that guides samples into its onboard lab—a critical step in the search for life.

To ensure every vibration is exactly right, NASA relies on Polytec’s 3D Scanning Vibrometer. Only with precise vibration measurement can Curiosity deliver reliable data—and help unlock the secrets of another world.

Because when vibrations are measured with precision, the answers to big questions come within reach. Discover more exciting aerospace applications
