Reticles

Optical reticles place measurement, aiming or reference patterns in an imaging plane.

One-dimensional, two-dimensional, concentric and aiming formats support microscopes, comparators, alignment instruments and dimensional inspection.

5 product families are available. Use the engineering filters below to narrow the catalog before comparing exact models.

01

Pattern function

Select aiming, measurement, resolution or camera-calibration geometry to match the imaging and analysis method.

02

Feature scale

Match active area, pitch and line width to the field of view and detector sampling so the required features remain resolvable.

03

Illumination and substrate

Confirm transmitted or reflected use, pattern material, dimensional accuracy, substrate flatness and overall size.

SELECTION QUESTIONS

Reticles FAQ

Technical answers to the questions that most often affect model selection.

What is the difference between a reticle and a calibration target?
A reticle provides an aiming, measuring or reference pattern in an imaging plane. A calibration target provides known geometry for camera calibration, distortion measurement or dimensional verification. Resolution targets specifically assess contrast and resolving power.
How should pattern type and pitch be selected?
Choose a pattern that matches the measurement algorithm and field of view, then select line width, spacing or pitch that the imaging system can resolve with adequate pixel sampling. The active pattern area must fit within the usable field.
Which substrate and accuracy specifications are important?
Verify substrate material, thickness, pattern material, dimensional accuracy, line-width tolerance, surface quality and flatness. Transmitted and reflected illumination require different pattern contrast and coating arrangements.
