Introduction
The Form Talysurf PGI 1240 is a high-precision measurement system developed by Taylor Hobson for the aspheric optics market. It is designed to ensure optimal component quality and consistency in applications such as diamond-turned molds, laser optics, digital cameras, and IR optics.

Specifications
The PGI 1240 features a 200mm traverse unit with 0.11µm/200mm straightness, a 12.5mm gauge range with 0.8nm vertical resolution, and a 1nm RMS noise floor. It supports a 50mm gauge range with special styli and offers a range of optional accessories for demanding applications.

Software Features
The Aspherics Analysis Software includes features like Aspheric Form Analysis, User Selectable Radius Optimization, Report Generation, SAG Tables, Astigmatism Analysis, and optional modules for Derived Coefficients and Asphero-Diffractive Analysis.

Applications and Benefits
The system is ideal for ultra-high precision processes like Single-Point Diamond Turning, providing a corrective feedback loop by exporting measurement results back to the machine tool. This integration enhances precision and efficiency in manufacturing.

Support Services
