Nikon Metrology Equipment
Nikon Industrial Metrology develops and manufactures advanced X-ray inspection equipment and microscopy solutions used across the electronics, semiconductor, materials science and advanced technology sectors.
A global leader in optical innovation, Nikon is renowned for its precision engineering and imaging excellence. Its comprehensive portfolio of industrial microscopes includes stereo, upright, inverted, and polarising models, designed to meet the rigorous demands of quality assurance, failure analysis, and research applications.
Nikon’s range of X-ray and computed tomography (CT) systems provide high-resolution, non-destructive imaging for the most demanding applications. With exceptional versatility, image clarity, and ease of use, Nikon’s X-ray systems are ideal for both production environments, research and failure analysis laboratories.
Nikon Inspection Microscopes:
Nikon’s modular microscope architecture allows users to configure systems tailored to specific applications. From motorised stages to advanced illumination options, every setup can be optimised for throughput and precision.
Producing a range of stereo microscopes, users can inspect everything from fine microstructures to full component overviews, with unmatched clarity.
For high-resolution imaging, Nikon’s upright and inverted microscopes are ideal for metallography, materials science, and semiconductor inspection.
Nikon X-ray Inspection Equipment:
Nikon offers a comprehensive portfolio of X-ray and computed tomography (CT) systems designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern manufacturing, research, and quality assurance. From compact units to large-envelope CT platforms, Nikon’s solutions deliver high-resolution, non-destructive imaging for a wide range of applications.
At the core of Nikon’s systems are proprietary microfocus X-ray sources, developed in-house, which enable detailed visualisation of internal structures from tiny electronic components to large castings. The XT V Series, including the XT V 130 and XT V 160, is purpose-built for electronics inspection, offering real-time radiography and CT capabilities with submicron resolution, advanced 5-axis manipulation, and intuitive Inspect-X software for automated analysis.

What is Metrology?
Metrology is the science of measurement. It involves the theoretical and practical aspects of measuring physical quantities such as length, mass, time, temperature, and more. In industrial and scientific contexts, metrology ensures that measurements are accurate, consistent, and traceable to international standards.
In the context of Nikon’s equipment, metrology refers to the precision measurement capabilities of their systems. This applies to computed tomography (CT) and microscopy. Both methods are used to inspect, analyze, and check components with high accuracy. This is critical in fields like electronics, aerospace, and medical devices, where even microscopic deviations can impact performance or safety.
