Digital pressure/vacuum meter

Available in either gauge or differential models, with pressure ranges from 2psi to 200psi, DigiMano 2500 serves a variety of industrial process control and automated pressure calibration applications as well as medical uses. Designed with dual pressure-control relay output ports, DigiMano 2500 allows the user to pre-set desired pressure to engage relay for each port using the sealed-membrane soft keypad. Settings can be either positive pressure or vacuum within the unit’s range. Optional pressure control function is also available. With a stainless-steel transducer, the DigiMano 2500 is compatible with non-corrosive fluids, gases or air, and operates in a range from 0°C to 40°C with an accuracy of 0.1%, standard, to 0.05%, optional.

A built-in RS 232 interface allows PC monitoring of pressure output at user-defined intervals between 0.5 seconds and 15 minutes using its real-time clock. Engineering units are user-selectable as well. DigiMano 2500 is housed in a compact, rugged aluminum case, powered by a rechargeable lithium battery, and has internal data storage and a large graphics display.

Digital optical comparator series

Developed by VISIONx Inc. and featuring 5-axis inspection that enables quick, accurate inspection of all sides and angles on the part, the comparator automatically verifies precise hole presence and accurately measures hole location. Available in a high-resolution, 20x magnification with a 38" diagonal image viewing area and standard travels of 12" on the X, Y, and Z-axes, the VisionGauge digital optical comparator’s all-LED illumination offers stable, repeatable multi-angle and multi-quadrant illumination conditions via a programmable, computer-controlled system.

CAD auto-align and CAD auto pass/fail tools automatically align CAD data to the part in less than two seconds and determine if a part is within tolerance. The auto pass/fail tool can be point-based or can consider complete geometric entities and can perform both simultaneously, on the same part. VisionGauge digital optical comparators are fully digital, Windows-based, drop-in replacements for traditional optical comparators. They are accurate and do not require overlays, Mylars, or templates. The comparators can be set up to automatically collect complete electronic documentation and device history for SPC and quality compliance purposes.

Delta machine for micro-machining

Dedicated to machining small work pieces (52mm diameter x 30mm), the entire machining strategy has been developed around interpolation. Machining operations benefit from the dynamic control of the worktable, while reducing the number of tools needed. Engineers have integrated high-resolution measuring scales (less than 10nm) and a new numerical control on the PC base that is capable of executing control loops more quickly than conventional controls. This combination guarantees submicronic contour tracking with the trajectory error reduced by a factor of 10 compared with conventional machines.

• Short machining time
• Exceptional accuracy and surface finish
• Low machine operating costs
• Low energy consumption
• Compact size
• Ergonomic and simple to program
