What it’s about
Polaritek’s innovative measurement technique is able to rapidly generate full-field stress maps of samples using non-contact optical methods.
Approach
Polaritek approached us with their functional prototype. Although what they had developed worked well, what they needed was something that was easy to use and feasible to manufacture.
Design
We employed some mechanical innovations and a comprehensive sheet metal enclosure to package the polariscope and improve it's functionality and aesthetic.
Build
We built the first beta unit for Polaritek in our lab so that we could understand the assembly process and adapt the design to prioritize ease of assembly.
