ACI (UK) joins GTMA

While managing director Phil Goulding highlights that the functionality of all the company’s products align with the accuracy demands inherent in the toolmaking sector – and regards the GTMA as “one of our most proactive trade associations” - he points out that the Metronics Gage-Chek DRO, in particular, is consistently being successfully applied in a wide range of ‘go/no-go’ tolerance check applications throughout the tool and mouldmaking sector, for example. “Gage-Chek is the simpler, lower-cost alternative to co-ordinate measuring machines for a host of components where repetitive multi-gauge inspection of relatively simple parts, often families of parts, are required,” he says. Accommodating up to eight encoder or LVDT/Half Bridge inputs - including length gauges, and linear and rotary encoders, as well as a wide range of measuring instruments – Gage-Chek is able to measure up to 16 dimensions per part.
