Company Profiles
5micron GmbH is a young company which has been located in Berlin-Adlershof since January 2015. The 7-man team develops optical measuring methods and systems, and currently focuses mainly on unusual fields of application for:
-> Highly precise measurements on large or faraway objects
-> Geometric measurement of inaccessible surfaces
-> Geometric measurements in harsh environments
5micron GmbH's current portfolio is made up of two business segments: 1. Surface measurement technology 2. Special illumination systems. The business segment surface measurement technology is concerned primarily with development projects for the aviation industry which are based on optical methods. The methods are:
-> Deflectometry (geometric measurements of dimensions such as length, torsion, roughness etc.). Resolution: 50µm
-> Shadow method (defects inspection (OK / NOK decisions)). Resolution: 20µm
-> Sample projection (analysis of surface structure/topography) resolution: 5µm
In the business segment special illumination systems, the feasibility of data transmission via pulses of light was demonstrated as part of an internal project.
The main field of activity of AdlOptica GmbH is versatile refractive Laser Beam Shaping and multi-focus Optics most often transforming Gaussian to flattop intensity profiles and finding applications in numerous industrial and scientific techniques. The result of multi-year experience in developments of the refractive beam shapers and special optics is realized in families of piShaper systems and specialized objectives numbering today more than 60 models which main features are:
• almost 100% efficiency,
• spectrum from UV to LWIR,
• power from mW to kW,
• CW and ultra-short pulse lasers,
• narrow spectral band and achromatic, spot sizes from few microns to several centimetres with capability to enlarge to meters scale,
• low sensitivity to misalignment makes easy and fast integration of piShaper in existing equipment or research installations.
Combinations of parameters of piShaper models and other optical systems reflect the real needs of real industrial and scientific applications, most often today there are ready solutions for majority of laser techniques: laser technologies in manufacturing of solar cells, micromachining, glass and sapphire cutting, welding, cutting, drilling, hardening, cladding, ablation, various types of spectroscopy, laser heating in geophysical researches, confocal microscopy, holography, Computer Generated Holograms, interference, variety of techniques based on SLM (spatial light modulators), irradiating photocathode in FEL and many others.
Nevertheless, continuous monitoring of requirements and developing of new beam shapers are the main tasks for the Research & Development of AdlOptica GmbH.
The company’s name AdlOptica is originated from Adlershof, Germany's leading science and technology park locating in Berlin and being famous due to concentration of companies having expertise in various fields of optics.

Development, production and sales of a miniaturized 3D endoscope.
The basic principle is based on a technology, called digital optical holography, that is still new outside the academic environment. In this way, advantages such as the greatest possible resolution at minimal space requirements are realized in medical, endoscopic applications. Furthermore, this technology allows a look below the surface as well as the analysis of the organ surface using AI (artificial intelligence) in future.
