Abstract
A reflectometer system for use with a non-contact actinic system includes a primary lens, and an illumination source and a detector positioned on an observation side of the primary lens opposite a goods production area and sample region. The illumination source emits an illumination beam through an illumination beam void between the primary lens and the housing, which is directed into the goods production area and sample region, and onto a flow or static sample of material to be tested. The material being tested then create a reflected beam, which shines back to the observation side of the primary lens through the primary lens to the detector. The general alignment of the illumination beam and the reflected beam create an extended sample region within the goods production area, as well as a compact reflectometer system structure.
