The Paragon test and measurement program is part of the Paragon test and measurement system developed by Turbine Metrology LLC. Its purpose is to acquire external roundness and flatness data from a test fixture consisting of rotating test table, and one or more highly sensitive positional indicators ("gauge head").

The part to be measured is centred on the table and rotated to a pre-defined reference point. The gauge head(s) are then adjusted to value previously calibrated as a zero reference points. While the part is under test and the table is rotating, the gauge heads track the small variance in the part being tested and return values to the data acquisition system corresponding to these changes.

When the test is completed, the data is used to calculate the results of the test based upon the pre-defined tolerances of the part being tested. The data can be plotted and the results can be displayed. When the test is complete, the data can be saved for future examination, for a permanent record of the test for a particular part.
