mp-tec
|
indicator
stands are ideally
designed for precise measurement,
|
inspection
(quality control) and machining. mp-tec instruments are articulated
dial gauge stands designed to meet the highest standards
of flexibility and precision. The 5 degrees of freedom of motion
are locked and released by means of a singular star grip. This
allows
a quick, flexible positioning of the dial gauge.
|
|
The mechanical tensioning technique employed produces a very
high clamping force of which in turn enables the repetition
of highly
accurate
measurements.
Manufacturing tolerances are extremely tight and with the high
quality materials used there is practically no wear.

Two models are available:
the well known MU-Series and the smaller SU-Series. Both models
are equipped with a new type of dial gauge adapter that guarantees
a highly precise positioning of the dial gauge. The term Dial
Gauge Adapter refers to the clamp that connects the
dial gauge to the articulated stand.

A
significant disadvantage of current models of Dial Gauge
Adapters
is that their construction, out of two or more components, results
in an unavoidable play or slackness in the adapter. The goal
in developing
a new, improved type of adapter was therefore to achieve a compact
construction having a greater stability, and allowing a more
precise and yet simple positioning of the dial gauge. |
| |
|
|
|
The solution to
this challenge is a new type of adjustable adapters consisting
of a single shaped part. This part forms two opposing legs whose
relative position can be fine-adjusted by means of a tensioning
screw
(DGH
3). A special micro model (DGH 4) with a fine-adjustment rocker
is also available for measurement precision in the µm
range. These new models provide unprecedented ease and repeatability
of setting, even with µm range dial gauges, while maintaining
a superior comfort of use.
