Micromotor are used in micro-scale surgery, assembly, propulsion, and actuation among others. To provide large displacements, they are often composed by thin beams and mobile parts that move in-plane over large distances. Their in-plane displacement is not the only important parameter, their buckling, out-of-plane parasitic displacement and vibrations need also to be characterized.
DHM® allows to track any moving element of the micro motor and to measure simultaneously its out-of-plane displacement in air, liquid, or vacuum, through glass window.
DHM® systems are compatible with glass corrected objectives to ensure optimal optical quality measurement at both low and high magnification when measuring through a transparent window
MEMSTool proprietary advance software algorithms enable to process DHM® 3D topography time sequence and to provide:
Accelerometer and gyroscope proof masses, vibrating wheels, or other sensing parts move generally both in- and out-of-plane, and often in vacuum.. Their characterization require both ultimate resolution and large measurement range.
DHM® acquire time-sequence of 3D topographies. This unique set of data combined with pattern tracking and edge detection algorithms provide reliable results in presence of :
From floor noise level to large displacement, the Holographic MEMS Analyzer provides :
