Mahr Contour Measurement Device Features Specialized Probe System
The MarSurf CD 140 AF is designed to measure many different kinds of workpieces, making it suitable for a wide range of measurement tasks.
Mahr Inc.’s MarSurf CD 140 AF contour measuring machine features a user-friendly design and advanced capabilities that enable simple measurement routines and reliable results for quality assurance.
Key features of the MarSurf CD 140 AF contour measuring machine include its specialized probe system with a functional arm length of 350 mm (13.78"). This probe system enables quick changes of stylus tips that don’t require any tools or recalibration. Automatic measuring force selection enables the correct force to be selected for enhanced accuracy. Additionally, MarWin software allows for simple and repeatable program creation or just one-off measurements. The base is equipped with carrying handles for easy transport and handling.
The MarSurf CD 140 AF also includes a long 140-mm measuring X-axis and boasts a positioning speed of up to 200 mm/s (7.87"/s). According to Mahr, this high-accuracy axis enables reliable measurements, saving time and increasing efficiency.
With its flexible, height-adjustable clamping stand, the MarSurf CD 140 AF can measure many different kinds of workpieces, making it suitable for a wide range of measurement tasks. The stand also offers a flexible mounting plate with a 25-mm hole pattern grid for standard fixturing components, removing the need for an additional staging area and enabling a short measuring loop to positively impact cycle time. The machine also optionally offers the capability for roughness measurements (Ra >2 μm).
