Product range
NJ HP 115 with an inductive gauge for traditional contact measurement and a chromatic confocal optical gauge for non-contact measurement.

NJ HP 222 with up to four contact and non-contact gauges and an optional camera for maximum flexibility.

NJ Portable is used for on-site measurements in production environment.

NJ Optimal is designed for high precision measurement of micro and nano-geometry and 2D/3D surface texture

NJ UHP ultra high precision profilometer is used at the French National Metrology Institute for calibration of roughness standards (uncertainty 16 nm on Ra 1 micrometer)

Modular Design
The NJ HP-series of surface profilometers have a modular architecture, i.e. any NJ HP-series configuration can be upgraded to a higher configuration, thereby reducing the cost of passage, for example, from 2D to 3D system or from a contact to a non-contact system.

Resolution based on step height repeatability. Standard deviation on 15 measurements of a 50 μm step (VLSI) at 500 Hz.
Applications
Standard applications include the measurement of profiles, step heights, topography, distance, area and volume, the analysis of form, roughness, waviness, flatness, coplanarity and grains, tribological studies, spectral analysis and the calculation of parameters in accordance with international and local standards.
The real surfaces are 3D. Though since years many surfaces have been characterized in 2D, but 3D characterization is superior and is becoming a standard in industry.
All NJ HP-series profilometers provide full 2D functionality in accordance with existing standards. 3D NJ HP-series profilometers provide full 3D functionality and incorporate 3D parameters defined in ISO/TS 25178.
4D as a one step ahead and analysis of a surface topography development against time is possible using the latest versions of software and very useful for research scientists and engineers.
