Trimos TR Profile / TR Profile DH-8
The Trimos TR Profile / DH-8 combines accuracy and adaptability: selectable cut-offs, programmable measurement lengths, and multiple standard parameters under ISO/DIN, JIS, and ISO 12085. Whether measuring on-machine or in-lab with supporting stands and contour modules, it offers reliable surface profile analysis.
Features
Includes tracers with skid (VH) and with/without skid (VHF) versions; allows flexibility depending on surface type.
With DH-8 version and optional contour tracer + software modules, enables measuring both roughness and contour profiles.
Battery-powered, detachable traversing unit; can be used directly on machine or in lab.
Offers many parameters (ISO/DIN, JIS, ISO 12085) such as Ra, Rz, Rq, Rk, Rt etc.
Multiple cut-off lengths (e.g. 0.08 / 0.25 / 0.8 / 2.5 mm) and measuring lengths programmable between ~0.5-15 mm.
