| In
order to meet the needs of both manufacturing and research, Taylor
Hobson has developed a powerful new software tool for the analysis
of aspheric optics. The Aspherics Analysis Software Utility provides
a host of features and benefits to Form Talysurf users, as follows: |
| |
Aspheric
Form Analysis |
| |
Aligns the component
profile to the Optical Axis and calculates the Form Error with
respect to Aspheric Design Data. 10 parameters displayed. |
| |
SAG
Tables |
| |
Allows the Form Error
results to be displayed in a flexible, optics-friendly format.
Enables users to export results for reporting or further analysis. |
|
|
Astigmatism
Analysis |
| |
Delivers
a comparative assessment of form accuracy for up to 6 measured
profiles, providing insight to the part’s rotational symmetry. |
| |
Derived
Coefficients |
| |
Calculates
the design data (Base Radius, Conic Constant and Aspheric Coefficients)
from a measured asphere. Allows parts to be remanufactured or
assessed optically using design software. |
