Positioning accuracy of fiber optic sensors

Home / Positioning accuracy of fiber optic sensors

The fiber-optic sensor measures distance, position and changes of position with an accuracy of just a few nanometers. Automatable calibration routines ensure that the values generated are reliable and consistent. The interferometric measuring technology used in the FDM Series delivers nanometer accuracy and absolute distance values of almost any type of surface. Combined with our miniaturized probes, the system has a wide range of potential applications, including within very small cavities.
