Time to Calibrate! Should You Ship Out or Keep In? Save Time, Money, and Aspirin! During this year’s IMTS in September, we had a great turnout and even better response to our already popular MIC TRAC™ calibration systems – not to mention our MIC 360™ In-Process Diameter Measurement Gage, more on that soon! With increasing […]
It is good practice to quickly verify repeatability on a MIC TRAC™ 3000 at frequent intervals between calibration periods. This simple verification process involves zeroing the MIC TRAC using TF-1F fixtures (anvils). This procedure will ensure the unit repeats to a resolution of 0.0001″ or better. Simply use the Coarse Adjust Knob to open and […]
Come See the MIC 360 in Action! The MIC 360™ In-Process Diameter Measurement Gage is an in-process gaging system that measures any large diameter from 8″ to virtually any diameter you can manufacture! It doesn’t require a standard… one person can easily operate…measurements are captured electronically…it repeats with extremely high accuracy…and this is all done with […]
Achieve fast repeatability and reproduceability between operators by utilizing t wo TF-1F and two TF-SV MIC TRAC™ fixtures for setting ball mics and certain indicator style gages. Set the MIC TRAC to the desired setting distance and adjust the gage accordingly. Properly install a TF-SV on each TF-1F. Then, set the gage’s contact points into […]
