Wavefront Sensors and optical Metrology tools

Wavefront metrology is one of the keys for achieving a powerful performance of highly complex and accurate optical systems.

Optical Metrology is our daily concern to fulfill our customers’ quality needs in many applications. All of our in house produced wavefront sensors (for EUV, UV, visible and NIR light) are delivered with a calibration certificate ensuring precision and traceability.

Imagine Optic supplies systems optimized for manufacturing processes but also provides standard wavefront sensors for beam testing and characterization of optical elements.
