Opto Engineering TCBench Series
Telecentric optical benches for easy measurements
TCBENCH series are complete certified optical systems designed for hassle-free development of demanding measurement applications.
Each kit integrates:
- 1 bi-telecentric lens for 2/3” detectors
- 1 LTCLHP telecentric illuminator (green)
- 2 CMHO mechanical clamps
- 1 CMPT base-plate
- 1 PT chrome-on-glass calibration pattern
- 1 CMPH pattern holder
The benches come ready for use, pre-assembled and pre-aligned to assure the best accuracy that a telecentric measurement system can deliver.
The collimated light source is set in order to optimize both illumination homogeneity and relevant optical parameters such as distortion, telecentricity and resolution. For this reason these benches feature unmatched image resolution and field depth.
Opto Engineering® measures the optical performance of each TCBENCH and provides an individual test report. TCBENCH series also benefits from a special price policy, combining high-end performance with cost effectiveness.
Features
- Pre-assembled set-up
Just attach yor camera, and the bench is ready for measurement - Best optical performances
The bench is pre-set to provide unpaired measurement accuracy - Tested system
The bench is quality tested as a whole system - Detailed test report with measured optical parameters
DID YOU KNOW?
TCBENCH series is now also available with new LTSCHP1W-GZ green light source, suitable for any kind of sample and specifically tailored for measuring reflective objects and objects with sharp edges.
KEY FEATURES
- Reduction of edge diffraction effects
- Enhanced illumination uniformity, especially on large FOVs
- Less sensitive to alignment

Tech Info
The benches come pre-assembled and pre-aligned to assure the best accuracy that a telecentric measurement system can deliver.
The collimating source is set in order to optimize both the illumination homogeneity and the relevant optical parameters (distortion, telecentricity, resolution).
Opto Engineering tests the optical performances of each TCBENCH and provides an individual test report certifying the measurement accuracy of the entire system.
Coupling a LTCLHP illuminator with a telecentric lens increases the natural field depth of the lens; this is particularly true for 2/3” detector lenses where the acceptance angle of ray bundles is much larger than the divergence of the collimating source.
For this reason these benches feature unmatched image resolution and field depth. TCBENCH also benefit from a special price policy, combining high-end performances with cost effectiveness.

NOTES
- Maximum measurement error without software calibration; standard image correction libraries yield close to zero measurement error.
