Product catalog summary
Introduction
Taylor Hobson has a longstanding relationship with precision bearing manufacturers, having developed the original Form Talysurf in 1984. The new Form Talysurf PGI 830 and PGI 1230 systems continue this tradition, offering advanced capabilities for measuring roughness, waviness, and contour on curved surfaces, specifically designed for ultra precision bearings.
Specifications
The Form Talysurf PGI 830 is suitable for small to large components, while the PGI 1230 is designed for extremely large bearing elements. Both systems feature a gauge range of 12.5mm with a vertical resolution of 0.8nm. Data logging is performed at 0.125µm intervals over a 200mm length, capturing up to 1,600,000 data points. The systems also include a precise straightness datum and a stable Granitan base with an anti-vibration isolation system.
Phase Grating Interferometer (PGI)
PGI technology, utilizing cylindrical grating, surpasses linear displacement gauges, enabling accurate single-trace measurements of surface finish, form, radius, and contour. The PGI 830 offers an 8mm gauging range with 0.35µm horizontal straightness, while the PGI 1230 provides a 12.5mm range with 0.125µm horizontal straightness.
Ultra Precision Fundamentals
The systems are designed to meet high precision form measurement requirements, including gauge linearity, stylus tip geometry, datum straightness, and low system noise. Calibration is streamlined with a patented automated routine using a spherical artifact, ensuring accurate measurements.
Environmental and Operational Features
Both systems are equipped with an environmental chamber to protect measurements from contamination and drafts. A 450mm motorized vertical column allows for precise position control and accommodates large components, with manual or computer-controlled operation.
Conclusion
The Form Talysurf PGI 830 and PGI 1230 systems are the automatic choice for high-performance and value in ultra precision bearing manufacturing, offering comprehensive analysis capabilities and robust environmental protection.

Patented calibration routine Taylor Hobson can claim a long relationship with bearing manufacturers. Case in point, the original Form Talysurf was developed in 1984 specifically for the precision bearing industry. It was the first instrument ever to measure form, texture and dimension on curved surfaces. Calibration is simple, quick and accurate using our patented and fully automated single trace measurement routine. A numeric and visual result gives the user confidence that the calibration and hence any subsequent measurements are correct. 1,600,000 data points / 200mm length Our new line of...
