Optical instruments and material-performance instruments — optics, mechanics and software engineered in-house
WHW · MICROCRE · EST. 2005
Shanghai Microcre Optics-Mech Tech Co., Ltd., founded in 2005, designs and manufactures two instrument families. The optical line — autocollimators, vision measuring systems and industrial microscopes — answers how straight, how flat, how accurately angled and what the microstructure looks like. The material-performance line — hardness testers, universal testing machines, metallographic preparation and high-temperature indentation — answers how hard a material is, how long it lasts and when it fails, from room temperature up to 1600 °C.
Five core technologies remain in-house: optical systems, precision loading mechanisms, wide-temperature furnaces and thermal control, image acquisition and evaluation algorithms, and motion control with metrology software. That is what lets us build around a customer's specimen size, governing standard and line takt instead of simply assembling bought-in modules. R&D and manufacturing are both carried out in Shanghai: the Fengxian plant handles precision machining, optical alignment and final assembly under ISO9001:2015, with a metrology instrument manufacturing licence, 100+ IP rights and 16 further patents pending. The "specialised and innovative" SME status (2024–2027) and National High-Tech Enterprise re-certification in 2025 (GR202531006563) sit alongside that work. We work with CAS institutes and universities, and support customers from seven service centres in China plus export partners worldwide.
Autocollimators, hardness testers, metallographic preparation, extreme environment instruments, testing machines, microscopes, optical metrology and elemental analysis are our technical base; tooling and accessories are grouped by category below.
These four statements are not wall slogans — they are the criteria we use before a unit leaves the factory: is the price fair, is the design decent, will the function survive the shop floor, and will someone still answer after delivery.
In instrumentation, accuracy is earned: optical paths aligned again and again, algorithms rewritten round after round, samples tested one by one. Diligence is the foundation; youth is the licence to attempt the working conditions others avoid.
No premium packaging. The money goes into guideways, optics, sensors and algorithms; the enclosure is decent, not lavish. Functions are judged by whether an inspector wants to use them daily — not by how they look on a datasheet.
The life, strength and failure of a material ultimately rest on an instrument that can give a reproducible verdict. That is what we build: a verdict that holds up and can be handed on.
Buying the instrument is only the start; consumables, spares, calibration and upkeep are the long-term cost. Our MRO direct centre removes the middle: traceable genuine parts, transparent pricing, stock for urgent needs.
