Diameter & angle capability with reverse bias gauge
The dual bias NOVUS gauge combined with the new high precision column delivers unparalleled diameter measurements to sub-micron accuracies. This capability is critical to manufacturers of components such as bearings, injectors and ball screws.
The above attributes coupled with the instrument's ability to measure internal or external angle make the Form Talysurf® PGI NOVUS a truly versatile system.
Powered by Metrology 4.0 Software
Metrology 4.0 delivers a simple, intuitive interface with virtual display and real time control. The state-of-the-art point and move axis control function (SMART Move) delivers precise positioning and measurement with ease.
Cutting-edge technology
Taylor Hobson’s advanced software enables dimensioning in accordance with part drawings and provides an exact reflection of the Part Co-ordinate System (PCS) delivering the final link in the manufacturing loop.
Metrology 4.0 software is easy to use with an intuitive user-interface, virtual display and real time control. The state-of-the-art point and move axis control function delivers precise positioning and accurate measurement.
SMART Move and CAD models
A powerful utility that enables online and offline programming around a CAD model. Features include a stylus tip “flight path” enabling collision detection.
The Metrology 4.0 visual display is an exact replica of the real instrument; seeing is believing. Measurements are made between pre-defined points or from points fed back from the analysis process. Improved accuracy and repeatability can be achieved via the unique feedback process.
Powerful Desktop Publishing
The desktop publishing features are powerful and simple to use allowing customisation of result layouts and ensuring a more professional and personalised look to your brand.
