Effect of Filter Settings on the Measured Profile Undulations Per Revolution (UPR) data in
the roundness graphs
Roundness values as measured are greatly affected by variation of filter cutoff value.
It is necessary to set the filter appropriately for the evaluation required. Measurement result graphs

A 1 UPR condition indicates eccentricity of the workpiece relative to the rotational
axis of the measuring instrument. The amplitude of undulation components
depends on the levelling adjustment.

A 2 UPR condition may indicate: (1) insufficient levelling adjustment on the
measuring instrument; (2) circular runout due to incorrect mounting of the
workpiece on the machine tool that created its shape; (3) the form of the workpiece
is elliptical by design as in, for example, an IC-engine piston.
