The ZEISS ROTOS sensor makes it is possible to check the size, form and location tolerances together with the roughness parameters on a single machine.

Key Points: 
  • The ZEISS ROTOS sensor makes it is possible to check the size, form and location tolerances together with the roughness parameters on a single machine.
  • Depending on the measuring machine and the particular stylus, you can capture Ra roughness values of up to 0.03 m with this new sensor.
  • Programming the surface parameters is quick and easy because the ZEISS ROTOS is completely integrated in CALYPSO, the ZEISS measuring software.
  • With the ZEISS ROTOS sensor, the operator also avoids having to reclamp parts and transport them between roughness measurement systems and CMMs.
