There
is a continual requirement for improved surface finish in both
HDD bearings and high precision rolling elements, which requires
metrology systems with very high resolution and very low system
noise. The Talysurf CCI 3000 from Taylor Hobson is an areal measurement
system, which offers a number of unique benefits to bearing manufacturers,
which include:
|
| |
Excellent
gauge range to resolution |
| |
The
system offers Scanning Broadband Interferometry (SBI) and incorporates
a patented CCI Algorithm, giving an unrivalled
0.01nm resolution throughout its complete 100µm
range. |
| |
Unrivalled repeatability |
| |
It
comes with a very stable granite metrology platform and the light
source is not within the measurement loop, which means it can
offer excellent repeatability of 0.01nm Rq. |
|
|
Flexibility
in analysis |
| |
The
system comes with fully integrated analysis software which offers
a wide range of functionality including over 150 surface parameters
and a single button analysis feature. |
| |
Unrivalled
accuracy |
| |
The
system is calibrated in three areas which are the lateral direction
(X,Y), vertical (Z) and the curvature in the lens.
