Specialty Precision Measuring Tools

Specialty Precision Measuring Tools



Specialty precision measuring tools are designed to provide high levels of accuracy and precision in specific applications where traditional measuring tools may not be sufficient. These tools are typically used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics manufacturing, as well as in scientific research and development.

Some examples of specialty precision measuring tools include:

  1. Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) - Used to measure the dimensions and geometries of complex objects with high precision.

  2. Optical comparators - Used to compare the dimensions and geometries of a part to a master template or CAD file with high accuracy.

  3. Surface roughness testers - Used to measure the roughness of a surface to high levels of accuracy.

  4. Roundness testers - Used to measure the circularity of a part or object to high levels of accuracy.

  5. Spectrometers - Used to analyze the chemical composition of materials to high levels of accuracy.

  6. Interferometers - Used to measure the flatness, parallelism, and thickness of optical components to high levels of accuracy.

  7. Laser micrometers - Used to measure small parts or features with high levels of accuracy.

  8. Thread plug gauges - Used to measure the diameter, pitch, and thread angle of screw threads to high levels of accuracy.

Specialty precision measuring tools can be expensive and require specialized training to use effectively. However, they can provide highly accurate and reliable results for critical applications where precision is essential.
