MICROCAM™-3D/4D interferometer
for high-precision non-contact surface & thickness measurements
As a core component of any NOVACAMTM 3D metrology system, the MICROCAMTM-3D/4D interferometer provides light source to optical scanning probes and carries out the optical and electronic processing of measurements.
Novacam interferometers MICROCAM-3D and MICROCAM-4D offer:
- Micron-precision 3D measurements – roughness, geometry (GD&T parameters), thickness, vibration, defects
- Fast acquisition rate of up to 100 kHz, i.e., 100,000 3D point measurements per second
- Measurements not affected by ambient lighting, air perturbation, or cutting of the beam
- Modularity and versatility of deployment, with fiber based optical probes that may be integrated on motion stages, robots, gantrys, CMMs, and CNCs.
- Many additional advantages offered by the underlying technology, low-coherence interferometry.
A selection of NOVACAM fiber-based optical probes is available to provide non-contact surface and cross-sectional measurement in a wide range of industrial inspection applications

Metrology Applications
Typical measurements
- Dimensions: GD&T (Geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing) parameters
- Surface roughness: (Ra, Rq, Rsk, Rku, Rv, etc.),
- Thickness: single-layer or multilayer films, coatings
- Volume loss: component wear or other damage
- High-aspect-ratio features: steps, holes, grooves, channels
- Hard-to-reach spaces: interiors of bores, small aperture tubes, etc.
- Profilometry in hostile environments: radioactive, cryogenic, very hot
- Long stroke profiles
