LabMicrometer
LabMicrometer is designed to provide the ultimate in user-friendly operation while delivering calibration-quality accuracy and reproducibility. Our exclusive digital interferometer measures internal and external dimensions by comparing the measurement probe position to the wavelength of a laser light source, effectively coupling the wavelength of light to the part being measured. Our patented laser path is in line with the measurement axis to eliminate Abbe error.
The thermal coefficient of expansion for this laser wavelength is more than ten times smaller than that of steel, making for a highly stable measurement source. Equally important, the linearity errors inherent in other scales (glass, steel, LVDTs) are absent in the laser.
Because this wavelength of light is stable, linear, and has very high resolution when compared to like instruments, LabMicrometer provides extremely reliable linear dimension measurement. And that's not all.
To further minimize instrument error, an easily positioned variable-force headstock automatically indicates a "go" condition once its properly positioned. A multi-axis worktable accommodates a growing family of fixtures to precisely hold your gages and parts. GageCal, our WINDOWS based control software simplifies data collection and speeds up data entry. Add our optional gage management module and the system is complete, with all subsystems complimenting each other to deliver high accuracy and reproducibility while offering the productivity associated with direct-reading instruments.
A Standard to Grow With
At Siemens, Measurement Systems, we're committed to an ongoing development program, that will produce a continuous stream of new or improved applications for the LabMicrometer product line. We're equally sensitive to the investment one makes in such an instrument. That's why we make all new developments reverse compatible to the very first LabMicrometer we shipped. So when you a purchase a LabMicrometer today, be assured that your investment is safe. Because as your measurements needs evolve, and they will, your LabMicrometer and Siemens will be there, ready to accommodate your measurement needs.
