LEXT OLS5500


3D Optical Profilometers for Surface Metrology

Surface Data You Can Trust. Accuracy We Can Prove.


3D optical profilometers use noncontact measurement to capture high-precision surface data, making them ideal for delicate or complex parts in materials science, R&D, and manufacturing QA/QC.


Evident 3D optical profilometers set a new standard in precision surface measurement, providing measurement confidence with precise surface detail, traceable accuracy, and smart automation.

LEXT OLS5500


Hybrid 3D Optical Profilometer


  • Traceable surface measurements from the nanometer to micrometer scale


  • Laser scanning microscopy (LSM), white light interferometry (WLI), and focus variation microscopy (FVM) in one award-winning platform


  • First 3D optical profilometer to offer guaranteed accuracy and repeatability* for both LSM and WLI measurements


  • WLI mode delivers up to 40x faster measurement throughput than conventional LSM


  • Exceptional precision across surfaces with in-house engineered optics


  • Intuitive interface and smart automation streamline operation for users of all levels


  • AI-enhanced and high-throughput workflows with PRECiV™ software integration


Guaranteed Measurement Accuracy


LEXT microscope objectives deliver highly accurate measurement data. Paired with the Smart Lens Advisor, you can acquire accurate data you can be confident in.


  • Guaranteed measurement accuracy


  • 10x to 100x objectives that reduce aberrations at 405 nm to capture the correct shape of your sample throughout the entire field of view


  • Smart Lens Advisor helps you choose the right objective lens for your roughness measurement

Easy Laser Scanning Microscopy


Using the microscope is easy for novice and experienced users thanks to thoughtfully designed software.


  • Acquire accurate data easily—put your sample on the stage and press the start button
