RLUX

The TaperLux from RedLux is a shop-

floor hardened optical gauge for the

inspection of internal tapers in orthopaedic

implant manufacturing. TaperLux uses

proven non-contact interferometry to

deliver sub-micron accuracy, unrivalled

speed and portability in a bench-top

instrument.

TaperLux in Manufacturing

Orthopaedic implant manufacturers are

faced with ever increasing demands for taper

quality control and the necessity to search for

process optimisations. The development of

the TaperLux is RedLux's answer to these

challenges.

Currently, manufacturers have to employ

several machines to ascertain features

which the TaperLux seamlessly captures.

These features include taper angle, defined

diameters, depth, roundness, straightness and

surface finish, which are all measured without

contact with the inspection surface, thus

avoiding damage to the component. The TaperLux

employs an efficient measurement and analysis cycle

to eliminate operator dependencies and ensures

optimised performance, with typical cycle times of

less than two minutes.

Sub-micron accuracy and repeatability, high

throughput, usability and the features captured make

the TaperLux the state-of-the-art metrology

solution for the inspection of internal tapers.
