Like every other function in modern manufacturing operations, inspection is subject to management’s efforts at cost control or cost containment.

Air gaging allows you to measure many jobs faster, more conveniently, and more accurately than by using other gaging methods. In the measurement of hole conditions, air gaging is unsurpassed for speed and accuracy, while in checking any dimensional characteristic, air offers sufficient magnification and reliability to measure tolerances well beyond the scope of mechanical gages.

With its long range of motion, the digital height gage can be thought of as a giant caliper, but one with the accuracy of a much more sophisticated benchtop gaging system.

Depth gages are among the simplest of gages, typically consisting of an indicating device mounted through a reference bar or plate.

Today most food chains are learning to cater to their customers. Whether it’s burgers or subs, you can get them made exactly to order and “have it your way.” Successful and growing chains understand this.

The need for long range height measurements has been around since the principles of layout work became a fundamental requirement in machine shops.

It is perfectly natural that machinists should have an affinity for mechanical gages. To a machinist, the working of a mechanical gage is both straightforward and pleasing.

Traditionally the length of a production run was a key factor in the selection of a dimensional gaging system.
