CENTER VALLEY, Penn. — Olympus, a global technology leader in industrial imaging solutions, will have its experts available for product demonstrations at IMTS on September 8-13 in Chicago.

Featured industry expert Dr. Chris Brown, PE, FASME, will provide insight on topics such as the value of surface metrology and measurement and analysis of surface roughness through a series of in-booth talks at Olympus booth #E5623.

Brown's speaking schedule is as follows*:

Monday, September 8

• 10:30 a.m.— Roughness Beyond Ra: The Value and Science of Surface Metrology
• 1 p.m.— Measuring and Analyzing the Roughness of Machined Surfaces
• 3 p.m.— Measuring and Analyzing the Roughness of Surfaces Made by Additive Manufacturing

Tuesday, September 9

• 9:30 a.m.— Roughness Beyond Ra: The Value and Science of Surface Metrology

Wednesday, September 10

• 12:30 p.m.— Roughness Beyond Ra: The Value and Science of Surface Metrology
• 2:30 p.m.— Measuring and Analyzing the Roughness of Machined Surfaces
• 4 p.m.— Measuring and Analyzing the Roughness of Surfaces Made by Additive Manufacturing

Thursday, September 11
• 10:30 a.m.— Roughness Beyond Ra: The Value and Science of Surface Metrology
• 1 p.m.— Measuring and Analyzing the Roughness of Machined Surfaces
• 3 p.m.— Measuring and Analyzing the Roughness of Surfaces Made by Additive Manufacturing

The Olympus booth will be exhibiting the OLS4100 and DSX100 microscope systems as well as Stream and Inspector software (descriptions below). Select NDT products such as the DELTA Professional, IPLEX RT/RX, EPOCH 600, 38DLP, OmniScan SX, and the new NORTEC 600 will also be featured.

• The LEXT OLS4100 laser confocal microscope system is designed to deliver nanometer-level imaging, accurate 3D measurement, and outstanding surface roughness analysis. The OLS4100 features new auto brightness and high-speed stitching modes.
• DSX100 opto-digital microscope technology combines cutting-edge optical performance (opto) with the operational convenience (digital) of a smartphone or tablet, allowing users to easily create, process, and share high-resolution digital images.
• Stream micro-imaging software allows users to seamlessly acquire, process, and measure images, then create valuable data and reports. Stream 1.9 includes a host of features designed to further enhance workflow and simple, flexible system operation.
• Developed in response to increasing requirements for particle counting and cleanliness inspection, the newly updated Inspector 5.64 image analysis software provides accurate and reproducible particle detection, measurement, and documentation.
