Air, Electronic Gage Readouts for Shopfloor, Lab Environments
Western Gage Corporation offers MillCheck and Micro II readouts to operate common dual- and single-master air gages as well as LVDT electronic gages.
The Micro II readout incorporates backlit LCD displays that flag out-of-tolerance conditions by changing color from green to red. According to the company, the seven-decade digital displays show actual feature sizes or deviations from nominal sizes. It also includes analog bar graphs to display the test piece condition relative to the product limits. Auto-zero and auto-span settings are said to ease operator use. RS-232C serial data and process control outputs are standard.
