Synopsis

One scratch on a critical surface can become a recall. The right measurement strategy stops it at the source.

Advanced Optical Metrology Handbook is a practical, industry-focused guide to choosing, deploying, and trusting non-contact measurement in real production environments. Perhaps, you run a quality lab, manage a production line, or are specifying instruments for the first time, the information contain in this book takes you from measurement strategy to automation, data integrity, and enterprise-level metrology programs.

Contain in this book, you will learn how to:

• Build a measurement plan and set pass/fail criteria that account for measurement uncertainty
• Choose between interferometry (CSI and PSI), imaging and chromatic confocal, focus variation, and structured-light 3D scanning
• Measure difficult surfaces: steep slopes, shiny or dark parts, transparent layers, and additively manufactured textures
• Integrate instruments into robotic cells, inline conveyors, and PLC-connected production lines, up to lights-out operation
• Apply machine learning to defect classification and predictive surface quality
• Establish traceability, uncertainty budgets, and ISO 17025-ready data integrity
• Diagnose the ten most common optical metrology errors and resolve disagreements between instruments
• Connect metrology to digital twins, QIF, OPC UA, and the model-based enterprise

Industry-ready coverage: optics manufacturing, semiconductors and advanced packaging, aerospace, medical devices, additive manufacturing, automotive, and consumer electronics, with five production-floor case studies.

Built to be used, not just read. You also get:

1. a step-by-step measurement plan template,
2. a 10-point annual instrument calibration checklist,
3. a 16-week implementation plan,
4. a technology selection matrix,
5. a standards directory, a glossary, and
6. a 5-year roadmap for your metrology team.

If you are a quality engineer, metrologist, process engineer, manufacturing manager, or R&D lead who needs to reduce scrap, pass audits, and produce measurement data you can defend, this handbook is your working reference.
