»3-D probe with nanometer resolution
With the continued trend in miniaturisation of electro-mechanical and optical systems there is an increasing demand for accurate geometrical measurements on small parts. An ultraprecision CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machines) stage was combined with the new probe head at METAS, leading to an unprecedented CMM performance.

»Differential Delay Line
The mechanism for the Differential Delay Line (DDL) has been developed by Mecartex on behalf of an European consortium of universities. The Consortium has selected the solution proposed by Mecartex for the realization of a first prototype of the DDL for an instrument of the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
