Baty R550 Shadowgraph / Profile Projector / Optical Comparator – 22 inch / CMM Description
Optical comparators can provide more information than just simple dimensions. Length and width measurements can be quickly obtained from two separate measurements by using a micrometer. These superficial measurements, however, might not reveal burrs, scratches, indentations or undesirable chamfers. Such imperfections are best detected on a comparator. In addition, a comparator's screen can be simultaneously viewed by more than one person and provide a medium for discussion, just as a white board might facilitate a conference.
Another advantage of comparators is their ability to measure in 2-D space. Unlike micrometers and callipers, which measure one dimension at a time, comparators measure length and width simultaneously. To do this, the operator lines up the lower left-hand corner of the image with the screen centreline to establish a zero point and then checks the upper right-hand corner to get a simultaneous reading of both length and width. The straight-line distance from corner to corner can be obtained with a single keystroke.
Optical comparators are used to measure manufactured parts in a wide range of industries around the world every day. Available with numerous features and options to suit many applications, comparators can be used throughout a factory, including incoming inspection areas, R&D labs, machine shops, assembly and production floors, and final inspection areas. Their versatility, range of capabilities and return on investment make comparators indispensable and integral to any quality plan.
Optical comparators save time. Ease-of-use factors and ergonomic designs reduce the inspection time, retraining costs and operator fatigue, all while increasing throughput. And because comparators generally allow parts to be held in one orientation for each 2-D view, costs associated with parts handling and setup times are significantly reduced. Optical comparators are among the easiest measurement instruments to use. In less than two hours, users with only a minimal amount of gauging experience can make accurate measurements using these devices.
Once called profile projectors, optical comparators provide surface illumination and allow rapid evaluation of part form and dimensions.
Profile projectors are reliable and affordable measuring system of high precision and efficiency. The optical comparator is widely used in calibration labs or on the shop floor as a stand-alone unit. It’s also a good choice for general purpose tool room work to measure complex shapes and hole patterns easily and quickly.
The Metronics Quadra Chek QC-2000 included with this item greatly simplifies the use of an optical comparator to perform precise, repeatable measurements. The QC-2000 is capable of a wide variety measurements: points, lines, circles and other geometric shapes. The QC-2000’s strong point is not just what it can do, but the ease with which it can do it.
