Leica Microsystems in cooperation with Sensofar is presenting a new complete solution able to outperforms all existing systems due to its unique combination of techniques. The DCM 3D is the first dual core 3D measuring microscope which combines both confocal and interferometry techniques the first time together. In addition to its compact and robust design, the DCM 3D is a complete tool that is ideal for obtaining a super fast, non-invasive assessment of the micro- and nano-geometry of technical surfaces, in multiple configurations.
