Dial Gauges  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

A measuring instrument used in industry is the dial gauge. It is mechanical and used to measure lengths. It is used for comparison, flatness and concentricity measurement. They measure to an accuracy of 1/1000 mm in the measuring range from 5 to 60 mm. Dial gauges are instruments for recording and processing data of any kind. However, each measuring device is adapted to its specific application areas. The type and scope of the measuring process, location and measured variables are decisive. In industry, the recording and evaluation of measurement data is urgently needed. They provide information about the location, quality and quantity of a production. Further measurement data are usually used for quality approval, for counting, or for temperature and pressure testing. The latter are used especially in the development and production of new materials. When designing a new building material, for example, pressure and behaviour in many temperature ranges and possibly also density of the material must be measured. The latter data are usually recorded after the actual measuring process in order to detect even the smallest changes in the material. Today, temperature sensors and pressure gauges are taken for granted as safety standards. In all high-temperature production areas, or even in high-pressure production, monitoring technology - i.e. sensor technology - is indispensable. They provide safety and warn of possible dangers such as overheating of a machine, overproduction or faulty production processes. Such errors could have a devastating effect on the company and its image. In the event of serious production errors, entire companies may even be closed down, as Germany has very strict safety regulations, which are ultimately intended to protect the end consumer. New products are tested long before they are marketable in order to ensure that they only receive high quality products. In crash tests, for example, new automobile developments are examined using high-speed measuring devices. Like many other products, these must meet the highest safety requirements in order to meet the minimum standard. In order to avoid errors during production, state-of-the-art sensors are used in factories and workshops to guarantee consistently high product quality. The latest measuring techniques work with laser systems, which are able to decide within a fraction of a second on the quality of an article, to sort it out, or to feed it to the next production step.
