Besançon, France & Leicester, UK: Digital Surf, global provider of surface analysis software solutions and Taylor Hobson, world leader in surface and form metrology, recently completed a new round of co-developments resulting in the release of an updated version of Metrology 4.0 software with the manufacturer’s brand new Talyrond® 500 PRO, a powerful instrument for roundness metrology.

Metrology 4.0 software made its debut in 2018 with the PGI Novus series of surface instruments, and now also allows both measurement and analysis on the Taylor Hobson roundness instrument series. Mountains® platform software features are seamlessly integrated into Metrology 4.0, which allows better control of the measurement process and the direct creation and export of analysis documents.
Users working with roundness now benefit from a fluidified and optimized workflow, with the ability to progress from measurement to reporting within the same interface, making the metrology process much simpler and more straightforward. This is particularly useful in a production context (shop floor use).

Specific features include high-quality 3D visualizations of cylinders and flatness scans, ease-of-use and desktop publishing allowing users to create personalized analysis documents showing raw measurements and analysis steps performed. Thanks to the multi-instrument compatibility of Metrology 4.0 software, various measurement types can be represented on the same document, for example, roundness, flatness, cylindricity, surface finish and contour.
“Cooperation between Digital Surf and Taylor Hobson goes back almost 30 years” said François Blateyron, director of research & metrology at Digital Surf. “Both teams understand each other. Our development department was able to build on its robust scientific knowledge to adapt to the new challenges of roundness metrology.”
“我们在精确圆度测量和深入分析软件领域的综合体验提供了独特的好处。”泰勒·霍布森（Taylor Hobson）高级业务发展经理乔恩·加德纳（Jon Gardiner）说。“我们共同制作了机械硬件和圆度分析软件的无缝集成，以提供世界一流的测量工具。”
