Fiber-Micro-Manipulator

Discover intriguing applications in medical technology with our innovative system.

The Fiber-Micro-Manipulator is a state-of-the-art tool designed for precise laser alignment. With its innovative mirror-controlled system, operated effortlessly by a joystick with a high gear ratio, it provides unparalleled control over the laser beam direction. This advanced technology works in perfect synergy with the Fiber vibrometer, harnessing the advantages of SWIR laser capabilities to accurately measure dark, rough, or glowing surfaces with ease.

For optimal alignment precision, a visible targeting laser is integrated into the system. This laser assists in achieving the desired alignment, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in the setup process. The compact and lightweight design of the sensing head facilitates seamless integration into existing systems, while the autofocus feature enables flexibility in achieving different working distances and small spot sizes.

When combined with a microscope, the Fiber-Micro-Manipulator unlocks a new level of precision alignment possibilities. This unique combination allows for separate measurements, enabling researchers, for example, to analyze the ear canal while ensuring precise alignment of the laser beam.

The human ear

The human ear represents an incredibly demanding system for amplifying sound and detecting vibrations. With the advent of state-of-the-art laser Doppler vibrometers, we now have the ability to explore the intricate vibrational and dynamic characteristics of hearing mechanics like never before. These cutting-edge instruments offer unmatched accuracy, resolution, and user-friendly operation, enabling researchers to delve into new dimensions of understanding.

Available Decoders

A wide variety of high-performance real-time decoders are available for the evaluation of the interferometric measuring signals. The Optomet UltraDSP technology enables the measurement of frequencies up to 25 MHz and vibrational velocities up to 25 m/s with the Fiber-Series, displacements can be resolved to less than 100 fm. All vibrometers incorporate a velocity decoder, and displacement and acceleration decoders are optionally available. Numerous measuring ranges per decoder ensure that measurements can always be performed with the optimum sensitivity.

Decoders can be easily retrofitted or upgraded. Start with a basic system and adapt the capabilities of the measuring instrument as required. This requires no return of the instrument to the factory and no waiting times for your production or research project. The table below provides an overview of the configuration options. We will also be happy to assist you in the selection of the best decoder for your measuring task.
