The remaining time until the next recalibration for the probe is displayed in the tile. No expiry date is displayed for non-calibrated probes.

Previously, it was possible to set the PDF output either so that all measurement sheets belonging to a measurement programme were written to one PDF or a common PDF independent of the measurement programme (e.g. wave and STI measurement sheets in one PDF). It was also possible to display the target paths when publishing depending on the context. This means that for a bevel gear measurement, only the paths defined for the bevel gear are displayed. 

However, it was then no longer possible to summarise the output by drawing number for a block gear measurement, i.e. all block gears of a measurement ended up in a common PDF. This can now also be output separately.

The calibration of the roughness with change of measurement direction was adjusted as follows:

Selecting the measuring direction

• The measuring direction can be selected for each button
• This can be set in a window, analogue to entering the correction angle or the Y offset
• The setting only applies to the corresponding probe
• You can choose between ‘Calibration in Y direction (standard)’ or ‘Calibration in Z 

Alignment of the normal

• The centric normal must be manually swiveled to 90° and positioned in the Y-direction (position similar to the rigid probes), with the surface perpendicular to the probe. The probe must be positioned within the step as usual
• The centric normal is aligned automatically
• After alignment, the normal is rotated by 90° in the C+ direction
• The start positions are adjusted to this position depending on the probe

Detection that z-plus is active

• Additional display next to the start and stop button
• The image in the roughness window now shows a normal swiveled by 90° as it is measured during calibration (For automatic alignment, however, the surface must face the probe.)

Previously, customers who had several roughness normals had to re-enter the value and tolerances when switching from one standard to the other. This entry was made in the service options. However, this required the entry of a password. With this release, it is now also possible to create round standards with different nominal values. To do this, right-click on an existing roughness normal to duplicate it.

The storage of the measurement results in a CSV format, as well as the individual measurement sheets for these evaluations, are stored in the folder C:\tmp\RoughnessStylusAutomaticCertification in the format "ProbeNumber_Probe-SerialNumber_Date_ExactDescriptionOfTheEvaluation".

With this release, the user has the option of setting the warning limit for calibrations on the sphere differently than for calibrations on the roughness normal. 

The optical sensor no longer extends when you click on the calibration symbol in the StylusManager. It now only moves out when you press the play button in the actual calibration window.

The changes to the content of ISO 21920 are cautious. The drawings that were created according to the previous standard do not lose their validity and there are no significant differences in the results

There are name changes to existing terms. As the old and new standard are offered in parallel in the software, the previous nomenclature (according to ISO 4287 & ISO 4288) remains in the software:

• „Section length lsc“ replaces the term „single measuring section“
• “Number of sections nsc” replaces “Number of individual measuring sections”
• “Evaluation length le” replaces “Measuring section”
• “Profile S filter (Nis)” replaces “λs profile filter”
• „Profile L filter (Nic)“ replaces „λc profile filter“ 

The DIN EN ISO 21920 series of standards consists of 3 parts:

• DIN EN ISO 21920-1 replaces DIN EN ISO 1302
  • Part 1: Specification of the surface finish
    • Contains new definitions of drawing specifications for roughness measurement
• DIN EN ISO 21920-2 replaces the DIN EN ISO 4287 & DIN EN ISO 13565-2/-3
  • Part 2: Terms and parameters for the surface finish
    • Parameters have been added and deleted from the standard
    • Other parameters have been renamed and have a slightly different calculation method (e.g. “Rz - Average roughness depth” becomes “Rz - Maximum height”)
    • Division into evaluation length and section length parameters
• DIN EN ISO 21920-3 replaces the DIN EN ISO 4288
  • Part 3: Specification operators
    • Default settings are defined in the third part of the standard series in order to achieve user-independent measurement results
    • The settings for the measurement can be defined via setting classes (Sc classes)

    • „Rmr(c2)“ becomes „q“
    • The Rdc is specified as negative in the evaluation according to ISO 21920 (in ISO 4287 it was positive)

Changes in STI

• Selection of ISO 21920
  • Under „Evaluation options” there is the selection “Roughness evaluation”
  • There you can choose between “Tolerances according to DIN 4287” & “Tolerances according to DIN 21920”
• Tolerances
  • Under ‘Tolerance’ there is a choice between “DIN 4287;13565-2” and “DIN 21920”
    • The measurement is analysed according to the tolerances selected in “Evaluation option” 
• Changes in measurement & evaluation
  • “Machine” menu item → “Settings” (filtering the roughness measurement)
  • The micro-roughness filter can now be selected under ‘Measuring positions’
  • The filter types are subdivided into ISO 21920-2 standard & 21920-2 exceptions (previous subdivision according to ISO 4287 & ISO 13565-2)
• „Measurement“ menu item → „Measurement positions”
  • As before, the cut-off wavelength ‘Lc’ and the scanning distance ‘Lt’ can be set here
  • The selection of the micro-roughness filter can now also be set separately for profile and lead (previously under ‘Settings’ - can only be set the same for profile and lead)
  • The settings for the measurement can be set automatically via the Sc classes (if these are to be set manually, ‘Free configuration’ must be selected)
• Changes to the measurement sheet
  • If measured according to a Sc class, this is output on the measurement sheet
  • If evaluated according to the new standard, this is output on the roughness measurement sheet in the top left-hand corner

Two tooth numbers can be selected for the roughness entanglement measurement. The fields can be edited if the roughness torsion measurement is selected in the measurement types. The ‘per tooth’ option must be selected in the ‘Tooth selection’ screen. Otherwise, these fields are greyed out.

The previous standard for the number of curves for K-template creation in GINA programmes was limited to 10 curves in the DataControlCenter. With this release, the number is increased to a maximum of 32:

With the option of setting the measuring speed for profile and flank measurement separately, we give customers the opportunity to achieve higher throughput rates. Critical features can be measured more slowly without slowing down the entire measurement process. The speeds can be conveniently set in the user interface.

The light source must be at operating temperature in order to be calibrated. A corresponding warning is displayed if the temperature of the light source is either <25°C or >40°C.

Previously: A basic coordinate system BCS can be defined in the shaft. All measurements and analyses are carried out exclusively in this BCS.

New: With the extension, additional coordinate systems can now be defined. The required coordinate system can be selected with the new evaluation of the position deviation.
