Refer to the manual for complete instructions on performing a specified procedure. The NewView Optical Profiler The ZYGO NewView optical profiler is a general purpose, three dimensional, surface structure analyzer. It provides graphic images and high resolution numerical analysis to accurately characterize the surface structure of test parts.
Lens 0.5X, 0.75X, 1.0X, 1.5X, and 2.0X. NewView 7200 accepts a single field zoom lens; the lens can be manually interchanged. NewView 7300 accepts up to three field zoom lenses automatically selected via software.
I N T R O D U C T I O N NewView Components (shown on previous page) Component Description Optical Profiler Provides three dimensional measurement data of the surface (Sensor) under test. It is a scanning white light interferometric optical profiler or sensor.
N E W V I E W 7 2 0 0 & 7 3 0 0 Principle of Operation The NewView system uses scanning white light interferometry to image and measure test part surfaces and provide surface structure analysis without contacting the surface.

Contact your ZYGO representative to make arrangements for installation and training. Move all shipping containers to the worksite. Allow the equipment to acclimate for at least 24 hours. ZYGO recommends that you save the shipping containers for future transport of the equipment. Warning! When lifting or moving equipment or pallets, contact the appropriate local and national agencies for proper lifting recommendations.

I N S T A L L A T I O N Changing the Sensor Height The sensor height relative to the column and z-stage is set at the factory to match typical measurement conditions. Under some conditions, such as: measuring tall parts, using tall part fixtures, and using SLWD objectives, it may be necessary to raise the sensor height.
