Marposs introduces its iWave2 wireless manual gage featuring a durable, ergonomically-designed handle incorporating a computer with 1.8" TFT color screen for displaying the measurement value in the operator’s hand. Interchangeable nosepieces convert the gage for ID, OD or length measurements at a resolution of 0.0001 mm. Measurement values can be transmitted via Bluetooth to a gage computer located within a 10-m radius.
In addition to the measurement value, the gage’s color graphical display with selectable portrait/landscape view presents a variety of information. The iWave2 gauge features a bar graph column with measurement unit, good/scrap part indication, wireless strength and battery level indicators, confirmation of measurement transmission, and an absolute/relative option setting. The gage’s soft touch buttons are impervious to moisture. Battery duration is approximately 16 hrs., while the gage’s inductive recharging system enables continuous use 24/7.
The gage is programmable for standalone use via Android phone/tablet or PC. When used with the company’s Quick SPC statistical software, functions including switch on/off commanded by guided sequence, calibration history and simultaneous zeroing of multiple devices are also available.
