For off-line part measurement of fluted cutting tools up to 50 mm with Industry 4.0 connectivity, communication and control capabilities, the Beta LaserMike Z-Mike Pro gauge from NDC provides accuracy, absolute reliability and repeatability for dimensional measurements of outer diameter, ovality, taper, TIR, runout, effective cutting diameter and more.

The Beta LaserMike Z-Mike Pro from NDC Technologies Inc. (Dayton, OH) is the next evolution of off-line part measurement system of fluted cutting tools. It sports sleek, modern styling and is ready for service under Industry 4.0 with expanded connectivity, communication and control capabilities. Z-Mike Pro provides absolute accuracy, reliability and repeatability for dimensional measurements of outer diameter, ovality, taper, TIR, runout and effective cutting diameter, to name a few. Machine shops that face increasingly tighter tolerances and the pressure to turn out precision parts efficiently rely on its ±0.5 µm accuracy and ±0.13 µm repeatability to help them deliver superior quality products. This gauge also offers versatility across a wide range of other demanding measurement applications, including rubber rollers, plug and pin gauge calibration, shafts, pistons, crankshafts, camshafts, motor shafts, glass tubes, fuel injectors, valves, computer components and more.

Other benefits include no recalibration, precision over the entire measurement range, no need to center the object to be measured, and measurements that are traceable to national standards. The Z-Mike Pro gauge is available in two models to measure products up to 50 mm. Ethernet and USB connectivity simplifies integration into centralized production networks and other devices. An extensive line of ready-to-mount modular fixtures are available to properly hold workpieces, from simple manual fixtures to fully automated and intelligent fixtures. All gauge components are backed by a two-year product warranty, and every measurement system is backed by world-class service through NDC’s support organization, where users have 24-7 access to the myNDC complete customer service cloud portal.
