Lambda Photometrics are delighted to announce an exciting new partnership to promote Xiton Photonics GmbH products in the UK & Ireland. For more than 10 years Xiton Photonics GmbH has been producing high-quality, DPSS lasers with a core expertise in nonlinear optical conversion that has enabled Xiton to develop lasers with deep ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths of 224, 213 & 193nm...

Laserex announces a significant advance in laser technology to produce green laser diode beams (GLDM) at a wavelength of 520nm. The GLDM series produce light that is more sensitive to the human eye than red lasers, making them ideal for use where a bright, crisp, clear green spot or line is required for an OEM or industrial application. The GLDM-4V...

EssentOptics, a leading producer of UV-VIS-MWIR spectrophotometers for optical coaters, sets a new benchmark for the effective wavelength range of this type of spectrophotometer instrument and announces the expanded Mid Wave IR (MWIR) range configurations for its Photon RT spectrophotometers. By Mid-wave Infrared (MWIR) we are referring to the 3 to 5 µm atmospheric window which is typically covered by detectors...

The latest microscopy lighting range brochures from Schott are now available to download. Each Series has its own brochure to enable you to find the relevant information very quickly. They include updated system diagrams, which explain the interconnection of light sources, light guide and accessories. Download: KL Series, VisiLED Series, EasyLED Series  brochure  

We are pleased to announce that Spectrum Illumination have appointed Polytec GmbH as the European Master Distributor for their complete portfolio of LED machine vision lighting products. Lambda Photometrics Ltd is a subsidiary of Polytec, meaning that Lambda is the official UK distributors for the Spectrum Illumination product range.     Please click the links below for specification sheets on...

In an exciting new development Baumer have released insight into its first camera models of the LX series with integrated, application-specific image preprocessing. These will be available from the end of 2015. Integration of CMOSIS sensors with 4, 12 and 20 MP with a single GigE interface is planned. The functionality can be defined by the customer in a flexible...

Lambda holds a significant inventory of demonstration equipment. The Optics Metrology group is no exception as it has Zygo Fizeau Interferometer, a Zygo Optical Profiler and a Savvy Optics Scratch/Dig inspector. In addition to these we will have the Essent Optics UV/VIS/MWIR Spectrophotometer for Optical Coaters on show at PHOTONEX again this year. Zygo VeriFire QPZ Laser Interferometer Lambda’s demonstration...
