Surface measurement tool
A precision surface measurement tool featuring a high-speed column drive, precision positioning and 4mm roundness and contour gauge has been introduced by Taylor Hobson, a unit of AMETEK.

The Talyrond 500H measures roundness, profile and surface finish on a single platform with high accuracy due to a low noise floor. It is suitable for high-accuracy measuring applications including precision bearings, fuel injectors, crankshafts and turbocharger parts. Specialised accessories allow the instrument to accommodate the industry’s most demanding applications.
It accurately duplicates a machine tool’s movements and exactly reproduces a work piece shape. This allows the Talyrond 500H to provide users with rapid feedback for efficient quality assurance.
A high-resolution gauge measures linear or circumferential surface roughness. A frictionless air-bearing spindle and precision column measure roundness, cylindricity and straightness. A patented calibration technique performs radius, angle, height, length and distance measurements.
