Beta LaserMike Z-Mike Pro Off-line Part Measurement System

The new Beta LaserMike Z-Mike Pro from NDC Technologies is the next evolution of the off-line part measurement system for metrology applications. The new Z-Mike Pro 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 OD, ovality, taper, TIR, runout and effective cutting diameter, to name a few. Manufacturers facing increasingly tighter tolerances and the pressure to turn out precision parts efficiently rely on Z-Mike’s +/-0.5 mm accuracy and +/-0.13 mm repeatability to help them deliver superior quality products. Z-Mike Pro offers versatility across a range of demanding measurement applications, such as rubber rollers, fluted cutting tools, plug and pin gauge calibration, shafts, pistons, crankshafts, camshafts, motor shafts, glass tubes, fuel injectors, valves and computer components.

From quality clean rooms to tough machine shops, the Z-Mike Pro gauge offers the following benefits:

  • No recalibration
  • Precision over the entire measurement range
  • No need to center the object to be measured
  • Measurements traceable to national standards

The Z-Mike Pro gage 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 Z-Mike Pro components are backed by a 2-year product warranty.
