The 150mm diameter base provides a smooth flat surface upon which the test piece is placed. It is easy to exchange different feet and weights to comply with different standards.
Throughout the dial gauge travel, a constant force on the spindle ensures the foot pressure on the test piece is constant.
A lifting lever attached to the indicator raises the spindle and foot, allowing easy location of the test piece.
-
Yes, various diameter feet complying to a wide range of specifications can easily be attached to the dial gauge spindle. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
-
The gauge can measure a wide range of materials, including rubber sheets, cured test pieces, plastic films, foam products, textiles, composites, and other flexible materials.
-
Only basic training is typically required, making the gauge suitable for both experienced laboratory technicians and new users. The gauge comes with a User Manual but if you have any questions please contact us for assistance.
-
Currently both models don't have PC connectivity.
-
Calibration frequency depends on laboratory procedures, usage levels, and quality requirements, but annual calibration is recommended. Contact us to book a service visit.
-
Check the cleanliness of the measuring surfaces, verify calibration status, and ensure specimens are positioned correctly.
-
Routine cleaning, periodic calibration, and inspection of measuring surfaces are generally all that is required.
