The Mountains Surface Analysis Business Unit of Digital Surf announced the release of Advanced Contour, a new software module, which is part of the Mountains surface analysis software suite. The module is a complete solution for controlling the dimensions of profiles measured on component surfaces. With an intuitive icon-based user interface, full set of metrological functions, graphical display of form deviations, automatic quality report generation, and the ability to export results to quality management systems, it ensures that contour analysis is not only accurate but also as straightforward and fast as possible. Running under Windows XP and Vista, the software is designed for integration into form measurement instruments, including instruments working on the nanometric scale, and for use in any research or production facility.
