Mahr Federal has recently unveiled a major upgrade to the software platform for its surface metrology systems. MarWin 4.5 offers increased functionality and ease of use, a range of new features, and a series of special option packages for specific applications. 
The new MarWin 4.5 platform is available on new systems and as an upgrade to all MarSurf® XR, XC, XCR, and XT instruments. “MarWin was originally designed as a modular platform to provide a ‘smart’ interface to all types of measurement systems, simplify operator learning on different systems, and allow quick development of custom applications and routines,” says Pat Nugent, vice president of metrology systems for Mahr Federal. “With this newest version, MarWin 4.5 has evolved to provide this broad, universal platform to facilitate the needs of everyone. Everything from simplification of the user interface for quick operation on the shop floor, to open interfaces that allow development of complex new parameters and measurement methodologies for dimensional metrology professionals is available.” Go online to [www.mahr.com].
