Abstract

Work is oriented towards opto-mechanical constructive solutions with high precision for complex microscope equipment with laser for artwork restoration. An important part of the restoration protocols applied in different area of art restoration/conservation requests microscopic investigation and double operation decision - automatic and manual operation. Working distance control and its adjustment represents the main difficulty for automatic laser cleaning process. On the other hand, IR or UV laser spot have to be marked by a visible beam and to support user decision increasing the equipment accuracy. Paper presents the optical arrangement of a laser microscope for artwork, investigation and cleaning with an optical system of aiming and metrological principle of working distance control.
