Patent abstract
A measuring device for measuring the height of a workpiece held on a chuck table provided in a processing machine. The measuring device includes a white light source for emitting white light, an acousto-optic deflecting unit for separating the white light emitted from the white light source to produce a flux of diffracted light and for swinging the flux of the diffracted light over a predetermined angular range by applying a voltage, a pinhole mask for passing light having a part of the wavelengths of the diffracted light produced by the acousto-optic deflecting unit, and a chromatic aberration lens for focusing the light passed through the pinhole mask and for applying the focused light to the workpiece held on the chuck table.
