Gauges

Hi, maybe this isn't topic for this section but... in my company we are using marposs or mahhr gauges for measuring diametars in production,but i m wondering is out there some good company with cheaper stuff for digital diametar measurements?
Anyone has some on his mind? Thanks in advance for every good advice!

Are you talking digital bore gages or air gage stuff or something else...or you don't care as long as it's fast and "good"?

Remember the triangle...Fast/Cheap/Good - Pick any two.

If you want it measured cheaply in the worst way, that's what you will get.

Hello James.
We use an Edmonds column gage for checking I.d.'s I think from the pictures they can check O.D.'s but I'm not sure. Pretty good set up..

We used Mitutoyo Dial bore gauges and calibrated standards to set them.On another note, one that will provoke argument and name calling,I have a manual CMM that I calibrate my tip using a ring gauge (verified by an accredited outside source).I will edit the tip diameter until the CMM reads the size of the ring gauge.I can take any subsequent ring gauge and will have a result within .0001" of that size.Just another way to verify inside diameters.

Interesting!! Not going to run out and try that but the situation may arise to may want to try someday...

There are Several gauges that are useful, but the most accurate gauge that I have found would have to be the double barrel 12 gauge.
