NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1:   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information,
and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended
February 28, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
experienced for the fiscal year ending May 31, 1998.

These financial statements are those of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.  Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year
presentation.  Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported
results of operations or stockholders' equity.

                                     FORM 10-Q
                           THIRD QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 1998


Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations:

The following information contains certain forward-looking statements that
anticipate future trends or events.  These statements are based on certain
assumptions that may prove to be erroneous and are subject to certain risks
including but not limited to the uncertainties of the Company's new product
introductions and the risks of increased competition and technological change in
the Company's industry.  Accordingly, actual results may differ, possibly
materially, from the predictions contained herein.

Company operations slowed during the third quarter of fiscal 1998, ended
February 28, 1998, as evidenced by decreases in sales and profit levels.  Sales
of balancer products increased in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany
and other world markets during the third quarter of this fiscal year, but sales
of measurement products slowed during this period due primarily to the impact of
delayed orders for the Asian markets.  Management expects these reduced sales
trends of measurement products to continue throughout fiscal year 1998.

During the third quarter ended February 28, 1998, the Company experienced
declining sales of the TMS-2000 non-contact laser texture measurement systems
(TMS 2000) to the computer hard drive market.  Sales of the TMS series products
have been made pursuant to an exclusive marketing agreement with Veeco (NASDAQ:
VECO).  Veeco has projected reduced delivery of these products during the
balance of fiscal year 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 declined to $2,372,320 versus
$2,918,912 in the same period last year.  This 19% decline was caused by delays
in orders from both domestic and international measurement customers.  SMS sales
accounted for $675,051 of the third quarter sales, as compared with $916,226 in
third quarter 1997 SMS sales.

Third quarter cost-of-sales increased to 55% of sales versus 36% in the same
period last year.  The declining sales of TMS-2000 products during the third
quarter had a negative impact on gross earnings and net earnings.  Cost-of-sales
of SMS products was 59% of related revenues for the third quarter 1998 versus
42% in the same period last year.  Management expects SMS cost-of-sales for
fiscal 1998 to be approximately 40% of related revenues.

Nine-month general operating expenses totaled $3,097,249 versus $3,127,802 for
the same period last year. The acquisition of Schmitt Hofmann Systems GmbH
("SHS") and Schmitt Europe Ltd. ("SEL") added to ongoing operating expenses.
General and administrative expenses for U.S.A. operations have declined slightly
in fiscal year 1998 as compared with the comparable nine-month period in fiscal
year 1997.

Sales by the German subsidiary, SHS, totaled $410,734 for the third quarter,
with SEL reporting $220,867 in sales for the period.  These sales levels met
management's expectations and resulted from intensive efforts expended during
this quarter in Germany and the United Kingdom to expand sales levels.  The
quarter included operating losses for SHS of $56,357 and operating profit at SEL
of $23,846.

                           THIRD QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 1998


General operating expenses as a percentage of sales during the first nine months
of fiscal 1998 were 37% compared with 42% for the same period last year.
Management estimates these costs will stabilize at approximately 39% for fiscal
1998, down from 41% for fiscal 1997 and 43% in fiscal year 1996.

In the three-month period ended February 28, 1998, net income totaled $101,794
versus $458,655 for the same period last year.  For the nine-month period, taxes
were accrued at approximately a 22% rate compared with 26% in the same period
last year.  Management now anticipates that the tax rate for fiscal 1998 will
approximate 34%, due to the timing of tax benefit realization from net operating
loss carry forwards.

Nine-month net income was $1,151,794 versus $1,206,275 for the same period last
year.  Nine-month income per share was $0.16 for fiscal year 1998 versus $0.17
last year on a basic basis and $.15 for fiscal year 1998 versus $.17 last year
on a diluted basis, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

The Company maintained its working capital position during the third quarter
while still financing the growth of the new measurement products and inventory
at SHS and SEL.  Working capital totaled $5,994,735 at February 28, 1998 versus
$5,109,560 at May 31, 1997 fiscal year end.  Corporate cash and marketable
securities levels stood at $1,103,529 at February 28, 1998.

During the nine-month period ended February 28, 1998, net cash provided by
operating activities totaled $883,049, including net income of $1,151,794.
Included in cash flow was a $1,407,931 increase in inventory.  During the
period, accounts receivable decreased by $1,289,813 and marketable securities
and commercial paper appreciated $45,400.  The increase in inventory was caused
by planned changes of balancer inventory for the U.S.A. and Europe and the ramp
up of the new DTM-2000 measurement product line.

The decrease in accounts receivable occurred because of reduced invoicing and
improved collections during the nine-month period ended February 28, 1998
compared with the same nine months of fiscal year 1997.  As a result of its
high-quality customer base, the Company has experienced near 100% collection and
no reserve for uncollectable accounts, returns or allowances has been
established.  Net cash used for repayment of debt was $179,983, which was used
for the retirement of long-term debt obligations.  Net cash used by financing
activities was $73,988.

Management believes that cash from operations, available credit resources and
its improving cash position will provide adequate funds on a short-term basis to
cover currently foreseeable debt payments, lease commitments and payments under
existing and anticipated supplier agreements.  Management believes that such
cash flow is also sufficient to finance current short-term operations, projected
capital expenditures, anticipated short-term sales agreements and other
contingencies during at least the next six months.

Management is currently reviewing long-range capital requirements as they relate
to expansion of products and markets.  This analysis may or may not result in
future decisions to seek additional funding for the Company via debt or equity
to service the Company's future growth requirements.
