Image Analysis & Stage Micrometers
-
The APPLIED IMAGE series of Image Analysis and Stage micrometers are ideally suited for calibrating optical, imaging, video, and reticle-based measurement systems. Designed for ease of use and manufactured for durability, the SM Series has both English and Metric scales in one or two axis configurations. Both types of micrometers come with NIST traceable calibration standards and are available on multiples substrates to perfectly fit your needs. The experience APPLIED IMAGE has in manufacturing precision imaged optical components makes us the trusted source for standards for magnification system microscopy and vision applications. Should you need to alter feature patterns, size, or substrate, fill out our Custom Optical Components and Standards form to start the conversation.

ACCUplace Grid Indexing Pattern
AP-G Series
-
Ensuring precise motion and positional accuracy is critical for a number of video analysis systems and automated measuring instruments. The AP-G series is ideally suited for calibrating such elements, in addition to its uses in determining stage squareness, and travel distance image analysis and visual inspection systems where precise motion must be calibrated and measured. All AP-G targets have number/letter indexed columns and rows for easy calibration and are offered on four standard materials; Glass (CG) Opal (OP) Photopaper (RM) and Film (TM).

SINE M-19 Sinusoidal Array
-
The Sinusoidal Array SINE M-19 is a remarkable new test array that achieves 256 cycles per mm while maintaining a significant modulation. It is designed for testing high resolution optical systems such as microscopes. Because its maximum width is 7.5mm, the SINE M-19 is small enough to fit easily onto a standard microscope slide (the TM-G variation is mounted in glass).

SINE M-13-60 Sinusoidal Array
-
The Sinusoidal Array SINE M-13-60 is designed to be used for evaluating systems that work in the reflective mode such as scanners, machine vision systems and cameras. It is imaged on Photo Paper in four different sizes getting larger from 1X – 8X. The ½X and 1X slides incorporate the same spatial frequencies. Spatial frequencies for the 2X, 4X and 8X versions are 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 respectively.

SINE (Sinusoidal) Targets & Arrays
-
Sinusoidal Target Arrays have been recognized as a superior test method for a variety of applications, from moiré contouring to reliable MTF Evaluation of materials, lenses, cameras, and electro-optical systems (Follow the hyperlink to learn about using Sinusoids for MTF eval). Sinusoidal Pattern Arrays are manufactured on two different materials for both reflective and transmissive applications. Because of the inherent limitations of reflective materials, the maximum spatial frequency of the reflective pattern arrays is limited to 20 cycles per mm, while the transmission film arrays are offered in various sizes up to 256 cycles per mm. In addition, the sinusoidal arrays are available in a Single Frequency Grating or with Multi-Frequency Gratings. If instead of continuous sinusoidal frequency, you are looking for a square wave frequency design, then look to the Ronchi Gratings page. Should you need to alter the size of the pattern or the substrate, fill out our Custom Test Targets and Charts form and start the conversation.
