Gage-Chek now embraces 'go/no go' component gauging

The latest version of the Metronics Gage-Chek digital readout (DRO) embraces comprehensive yet easy-to-use functionality that makes ‘go/no-go’ component gauging – of even complex parts - both cost-effective and efficient. With a full set of mathematical expressions, programmable digital input/output as well as programmable relay outputs, the Metronics Gage-Chek can maximise inspection efficiency by providing instant feedback when dimensions are out of tolerance. Initially targeted at production departments, system integrators and probe manufacturers, and applications across the manufacturing spectrum, Gage-Chek can accommodate 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 - and is able to measure up to 16 dimensions per part. Gage-Chek is simple to operate and, equally important, it is easy to program and re-program to suit workpiece variation, and can hold up to 100 different parts. The system's versatile go/no go display combines familiar DRO functionality with colour graphics and audio alerts to provide fast and accurate measurement feedback, and its ruggedness and ease of use makes it ideal for shopfloor application.
