Pneumatic dimensional measurement device Solex Metrology
PNEUMATIC VERSION
Pneumatic metrology is a size measurement technique for parts which has two significant advantages:
- highly accurate measurement
- fast measurement
This device is used to measure the size of parts that have openings for which there are very strict size tolerances, of parts that cannot be touched because of their surface condition, or of parts that have complex geometry.
For many years it has been used in industrial sectors such as the biomedical industry (prostheses), cosmetics (sprays), pharmaceuticals (dosing pumps), aeronautics or the automotive industry (metal parts), in which its robustness, its reliability and its high measurement accuracy are recognised.
It has been completely redesigned and also equipped with a new electronic module to provide even more features.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The principle is based on a pneumatic flow meter that directly reads the drop or increase in pressure corresponding to the variation of the flow rate corresponding to an opening or a leak.
The regulator guarantees a constant pressure. The air passes through the head air nozzle and comes out through the opening to be controlled. The head nozzle cross section is constant and that of the opening varies depending on the size of the measured parts. This causes pressure variations between the head nozzle and the opening, which are recorded by the micro-measurement pressure gauge.
