Portable Surface Roughness Tester

LEICESTER, ENGLAND— Working closely with manufacturers across a range of industries, including precision component and bearings producers, Taylor Hobson, a global leader in ultra-precision measurement instrumentation, has developed a new series of portable roughness testers robust enough for the shop floor, while flexible enough for any inspection room.  The new Surtronic® S-100 Series has the versatility to meet the roughness requirements of a host of surface measurement applications. It features a 50mm stylus lift with right-angle attachment and a more than 70mm stylus reach that allows even the most challenging surface measurement without the use of expensive risers, blocks, stands or fixtures.
