The new Talysurf i-Series from Taylor Hobson, a global leader in ultra-precision measurement instruments, offers such features as an simultaneous surface finish, 3D analysis tool, and contour measurement. The versatile instrument combines Taylor Hobson’s decades of experience in high-accuracy surface measurement with its expertise in ultra-precision machining.
Surface and Contour in One
The Form Talysurf i-Series is a high accuracy instrument range capable of simultaneous surface finish and contour measurement. The system's low noise axes and high resolution gauge ensures measurement integrity with choice of gauge ranges providing versatility for a variety of applications.
Reproducible measurement results
Decades of experience, ultra precision machining expertise and FEA optimized design combine to provide low noise and near flawless mechanical execution of the measuring axes. Further enhancement via the use of traceable standards and exclusive algorithms effectively eliminates instrument influence from the measurement results.
Temperature compensation
Standard across all i-Series models, this unique system monitors and feeds back changes in ambient temperature, ensuring consistent system performance and high measurement integrity, regardless of environmental effects.
Using an optional motorized Y-stage and Talymap, transform your conventional 2D measurement in to a 3D analysis tool.
Applications include:
- Cylinder heads - Valve surface finish - Valve angle
- Roller bearings - Surface finish - Form error and DXF comparison
- Gears - Surface finish - Root radius and form deviation
- Crankshafts - Surface finish - Fillet radi and DXF comparison
- Ball screw - Pitch, angle, form and Linear dimensions
