Automatic diameter testing of shafts
The Vertical Gauging Unit (VGU) is a measuring system for the precise and non-contact measurement of shafts and axes. The system is equipped with four optical micrometers and a laser distance sensor. The system enables measurements of axial lengths, diameters, concentricity and splines – achieving cycle times and accuracies that could never be achieved with manual measurement techniques.
