The Thickness Gauge machine is a high speed, high accuracy industrial built thickness measuring machine. Each part is rotated and scanned using a series of laser micrometers achieving an inspection of 340-360º of a parts surface for thickness defects. The parts can be routed to a rejection bin based on user defined tolerances. The PC based controller utilizes a real-time high speed operating system and custom algorithms for software filtering. We can customize filters to ignore manufactured impressed designs while testing for irregularities and/or measuring on other surfaces of the product. This industrial built machine can be used in a stand-alone application or can be integrated into an existing production line.
