Mahr Introduces New MarSurf CD 140 AF Contour Measuring Machine

Enables Fast, Simple, and Comprehensive Contour Measurement in the Production Environment

PROVIDENCE, RI – August 13, 2024  Mahr Inc., a leading provider of dimensional metrology solutions, announced a new solution for contour measurement. A space-optimized measuring station for the production environment, the MarSurf CD 140 AF contour measuring machine features a user-friendly design and advanced capabilities that allow for simple measurement routines and reliable results for quality assurance.

Key features of the MarSurf CD 140 AF contour measuring machine include its unique probe system with a functional arm length of 350 mm (13.78 in). This probe system enables quick changes of stylus tips that don’t require any tools or recalibration. Automatic measuring force selection guarantees that the correct force is 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 140mm measuring X-axis and boasts a positioning speed of up to 200 mm/s (7.87 in/s). This high-accuracy axis ensures 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).

“The MarSurf CD 140 AF sets a new standard for comprehensive contour measurement, providing unparalleled speed and simplicity in the production environment,” said Pat Nugent, Vice President, Product Management at Mahr. “It is designed to streamline the contour measuring process, offering fast and precise measurements along with incredible versatility.”
