OptiCentric® 101: Higher Precision
From: TRIOPTICS GmbH
TRIOPTICS' OptiCentric® 3D 101 with its new optimized software is the only system worldwide that allows the combined measurement of lens centering, air gap, and center thickness. Using the real distances for center thickness and air gaps now in a patented procedure instead of nominal values for the MultiLens calculation of internal centering errors significantly improves the accuracy of the obtained results.
