Gageheads

GCA/GCD Series (Spring Loaded Design)

Description

GCA/GCD Series gage head with stainless steel construction enables the GCA/GCD performs in environments containing moisture, dirt and other contaminants. Electronic components are hermetically sealed for added protection against hostile conditions. These are heavy duty, long stroke
units with ranges up to ±2.0″ (50mm). Maximum spring force is typically 8 oz (226.8g), dependent upon probe position. The working end or probe has a removable chrome plated, hardened tool steel tip threaded to the probe with a 4-48 UNF-2A threading. Schaevitz® replacement and alternate contact tips are available. Tips are also interchangeable with AGD dial indicator tips.

Features

• CE Compliant (DC Models)
• All-Welded Construction
• Resistant to Harsh Environments
• MS-Type Connector
• Electronics Hermetically Sealed
• Calibration Certificate Supplied with Every Gage Head
• Compatible with All Schaevitz Signal Conditioners
• Special Contact Tips

Applications

• In-Process Measurements to Close Loop with PLC or CNC Controller
• Environments Requiring Hermetically Sealed Transducers
• High Temperatures (300°F for AC Units)

GCD-SE Series Precision Gage Heads

Spring-Loaded Design for 0.100 to 2.00 Range Measurement

The GCD-SEis available in five unipolar measurement ranges, with standard strokes from 0 to 0.1 inch to 0 to 2.0 inches. Operating on a single ended 8.5 to 28.0 volt dc. input, and minimal current draw, the GCD-SE is ideally suited to portable measurement applications. Hermetically
sealed, the GCD-SE is also well suited to in-process wet grinding and machining applications.

Features

• CE Compliant
• Heavy-duty, All-welded Construction
• Unipolar Ranges: 0.1” to 2.0”
• 8.5 to 28 VDC Operation
• Low Power Consumption
• May Be Battery Operated
• 0 to 5 and 1 to 6 VDC Outputs
• New Heavy Duty Front End
• Hermetically Sealed Design

Applications

• Roller Gap Control
• In-process Wet Grinding
• Hand Held Gages
• X-Y Positional Feedback

LBB Ultra-Precision Gage Heads

• Spring and pneumatic extend versions
• Linear ball bearing front end
• Extremely long life cycle
• 0.000004 inch [0.1μm] repeatability
• ±0.02 to ±0.2 inch [±0.5 to ±5mm] ranges
• Replaceable tungsten carbide contact tip
• Double shielded LVDT
• Flexible cable, resistant to chemicals
• Fluoroelastomer boot (Model dependant)
• Selection of optional electrical connectors

Description

The Linear Ball Bearing (LBB) Ultra-Precision gage heads are dimensional gaging probes engineered for highly precise
and repeatable measurements in quality control and metrology applications. The linear ball bearing system within the gaging probe reduces radial play to a minute level and minimizes friction for ultra-precise measurement.

Features

• 0.000004″ (0.10μm) repeatability
• Housing diameter options: Smooth 0.315” [8mm] & 3/8” [9.5mm], or threaded 3/8”-40 UNS-2A
• Four electrical connector options (cable end)
• Optional contact tips (4-48 UNF-2A threads only)
• Adapter provided for radial cable exit (Selected models)
• Compatible with all our signal conditioners
• Calibration report supplied with each unit

Applications

• Online inspection of automotive parts
• Process feedback for numerically controlled machine tools
• Dimensional inspection of precision parts
• Point-of-manufacture status of production process standards
• Automated data collection for factory SPC
• Robotics
