Highly accurate gauge block comparator
Reproducibility of the measurements is ˂5 nm
Abbe-error-free probing with 2 interferometric probes
only 15 standard gauge blocks required for the calibration of a 122-piece gauge block set
cost savings due to low recalibration effort
savings in measurement time due to user-guided measurement sequence (~ 5 seconds per sample)
calibration of unusual nominal dimensions and materials possible
high linearity over the entire measuring range
constant probe measuring force over the entire measuring range
correction of the test specimen and standard temperature is possible
material temperature sensor (optional 4 pieces)
PC software under Windows
The EPP-2 gauge block test station for calibrating parallel gauge blocks uses a laser interferometric probe for both measuring probes. It has a measuring range of 0.5 to 100 mm and a resolution of <1 nm. The reproducibility of a measurement is less than 5 nm for gauge block calibration. This reduces the number of standard gauges required to 15 for a 122-piece gauge set.
The gauge comparator is easy to operate, and the correction, evaluation, and output of the measured values are carried out via a GUI or PC. With the open SIOS hardware library, you can easily integrate the device into your existing software or create your own. Individual adaptation of the measurement sequence by the user is possible.
