in-process gauge for grinder

Absolute gauges for in-process measuring of diameter on cylindrical grinding machine

Top Gauge Absolute (TGA) helps to improve precision and efficiency in manufacturing processes, through an accurate measuring of workpieces diameters. Its outstanding performance, in fact, combines one of the Balance Systems’ milestones “TG200 gauge head” with state-of-the-art mechatronic solutions that earn a quick measuring process along with a high accuracy level. Top Gauge Absolute measures all diameters within its measurement range, with pre/in/post-process cycle, with no need to reset the single diameter.

Features

2 simultaneous measuring process; availability in combination with the measurement of the axial position (active or passive flagging)
