(Mahr Federal: Providence, RI) -- Mahr Federal will be featuring the new option package for its well-known MarForm MMQ 200 Formtester at MD&M East, the medical design and manufacturing exposition held June 7–9, 2011, at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, in New York. Mahr Federal will occupy booth No. 1781.

The new option package for the MarForm MMQ 200 Formtester provides the measurement of surface finish parameters according to accepted standards from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), and the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee (JIS). With the combined hardware and software option, operators will benefit from reduced setup and measurement cycle time, as well as reduced cost through the need of only a single piece of equipment for both form and surface measurements.

According to Pat Nugent, vice president for metrology products at Mahr Federal, the surface finish option will make the MMQ 200 an excellent choice for a number of medical applications.
