StrainScope™

Automatic and Objective Measurement of the Stress Birefringence in Glass, Plastics
and other Translucent Materials

With the new StrainScope, mechanical stresses in glass and plastics can now be measured and visualized in real time. The StrainScope can be used flexibly wherever conventional polariscopes and polarimeters are used nowadays. However, in contrast to these, the StrainScope delivers objective and reproducible values; the influence of different operators on the measuring result is thus largely eliminated.

• Automatic determination and color-coded presentation of the stress distribution
• Objective results, fast and easy operation
• Improvement in quality by on-site measurement
• Traceability by automatic filing of all results
• Cost reduction by optimization of the production process

• Container glass (annealing lehr optimization, energy saving)
• Lighting (residual stress, glass metal transition)
• Tubing and pharmaceutical glass (residual stress)

• Archiving of the result images and the raw data on the local hard disk or in the network
• Thumbnail view of the last four measurement results
• List view of all measurements until a selectable date
• Functions for deleting, printing, filtering and sorting measurements
• Subsequent analysis of the raw data with the StrainAnalyzer tool
