RotoVib – Automated modal analysis made easy
RotoVib seamlessly integrates into Polytec’s workflow for QTec 3D scanning laser vibrometers, saving time with automatic repositioning of the test object. Ideal for small and medium-sized samples up to 50 kg, it enables 360° measurements and uses CAE models for accurate results. The operation without special safety requirements makes RotoVib the perfect solution for model validation and dynamic characterization of small test objects.
ProSpeed®: Optical length & speed sensors with enhanced connectivity
No contact, no slippage, no wear: ProSpeed® optical encoders measure reliably even on red-hot metals up to over 1.000°C, enabling reliable length verification, position tracking, speed synchronization and superior cut-to-length control. This new generation Laser Surface Velocimeters come with enhanced connectivity, multi-user access for up to 4 users, Ethernet/IP or Profinet protocols or classic analog or digital signals for PLC.

Basic principles of laser Doppler vibrometry
Laser vibrometry is a high precision optical measurement method for the non-invasice determination of vibrational velocity and amplitude of a sample surface. Based on the Doppler effect it evaluates the frequency shift of backscattered laser light from a moving object surface. Learn more about the measurement principle and interferometer setup in this new video.
Areas of technology
Vibrometry
Laser vibrometers developed and manufactured by Polytec define the globally recognized standard for optical vibration measurement. We provide our customers from a wide variety of industries a comprehensive range of solutions for almost any vibration-related challenge in research, development, production and condition monitoring. Laser Doppler vibrometers are precision measuring instruments for the examination of objects of almost any size and solve your task quickly, in a non-contact, non-destructive manner.
Velocimetry
When producing continuous material and piece goods, knowing the exact length and velocity is key if you are to optimize your costs and processes. Non-contact laser surface velocimeters make reliable process control possible, based on the laser-precise measurement of length and speed, even in harsh ambient conditions. Designed for their robustness, reliability and minimum maintenance requirements.
Surface Metrology
TopMap is the line of optical surface metrology systems by Polytec, characterizing precision-manufactured surfaces in a non-contact, fast and areal way. TopMap wlhite-light interferometers provide repeatable and reproducible measurements of form parameters, roughness, microstructures and more. With a 4 year warranty and strong commitment to service & support, TopMap surface metrology drives the transformation of industrial manufacturing and quality control. Together we turn 3D topography data into your manufacturing and process knowledge.
When surface metrology becomes surface quality
For measuring the finest details in surfaces, the TopMap series of optical profiler systems are the preferred solution. From microscopes to macroscopes, Polytec has a product to meet the toughest of applications needs.
