Bristol Instruments

Bristol Instruments is a world leader in optical interferometer-based instrumentation. Its proven Michelson interferometer and Fizeau etalon technologies ensure that products provide reliably accurate measurements for scientists and engineers who are involved in scientific research, fiber communications and optical metrology. Bristol Instruments provides products to measure critical physical dimensions of materials such as plastic films, medical membranes, glass tubing, and ophthalmic products. Bristol Instruments’ optical thickness gauge is a simple and non-destructive way to precisely measure thickness of a variety of transparent and semi-transparent materials.

Thickness information is critical in the development and production of materials such as contact and intraocular lenses and medical products including balloons, catheters, stents, bags, and tubing. Bristol Instruments combines high accuracy with straightforward operation and rugged design to make their products ideal for both laboratory and manufacturing environments.
