The Microgage PRO is your

ideal industrial alignment solution.

Microgage PRO works on a very simple principle: Laser light travels in a straight line. If

you attach a laser transmitter to one assembly and a laser receiver to another, then the

alignment of the two assemblies will equal the X/Y displacement of the laser beam at

the receiver. And Microgage PRO measures all this with a precision of 0.0001 inch over

distances of up to 180 feet.

Are you a production engineer? In charge

of machine repair? Is precise alignment

absolutely critical to the proper functioning

of your manufacturing equipment and final product? Would you like a measurement

and alignment solution that is easy to set

up, easy to use and extremely versatile?

Then your solution is the

Microgage PRO.

Many Alignment Tools in OneUse the Microgage PRO to perform any of these essential alignment tasks:

Linear

Alignment (straightness)

Measures any devia-tion from a linear path.

Examples:aligninglongmachine beds, rails,

tracks, slides and shaft

runs.

Planar Alignment (flatness)

Measures any unevenness

ofasurface.Examples: machine beds, web systems,

roller systems, gantry travel,

surfaceprofilingand leveling machinery.

Perpendicular Alignment (squareness)

Measuresanydeviationoffasquarelineoraxis. Examples:checkingZ-axistravel,squaringguidesand actuators, aligning linear stages, inspecting

milling and cutting systems.

The 90-Line Beam Bender is an accessory

that redirects the laser beam at a precise right

angle, enabling the digital receiver to provide

measurements of squareness and parallelism.

Perpendicular Planes (squareplane)

Measures the squareness or perpendicu-larity of a plane relative to a reference line

oraxis.Examples:aligninggantrycrossbridges, checking overhead rollers and

idlers,andadjustingCNCmachinetools.

Multipath Alignment (parallelism)

Measures the degree to which two linear paths

maintain the same distance from each other

alongtheirentirelengths.Examples:aligningtracks and rails, positioning moving slides to

other assemblies, checking parallel edges,

aligning rollers and web handling systems.

Centerline Alignment (concentricity)

Measuresanyoffsetorangulardeviationoffacenterlineorrotatingaxis.Examples:aligningspindles,checkinglathesandCNCturning centers,adjustingextruderbarrels,gearbox and drive shaft alignment.

Bore Alignment (axialalignment)

Measurestheoffsetandangularpositionof a bore or collection of cylinders to a common

centerline.Examples:aligningcrankshaft journals,propellershaftandsterntubealignment,

adjustingextruderramsanddies,measuring bend and concentricity of bore tubes.
