Diebold gaging products are designed the help maintain the accuracy and alignment of all machining center spindles. Whether it is the alignment of the spindle to the table or the spindle's rotational accuracy, your machine tool and cutting tools can only perform to their maximum capability if the spindle connection is good physical condition, alignment and operational accuracy.
TIR (total indicator runout) of spindle can dramatically impact the cutting conditions of your cutting tools, meaning 1) cutting tool edge life, 2) part finish, and 3) cutting tool cutting accuracy or part tolerance. Diebold's gaging products are designed to help maintain the highest spindle accuracy and cutting conditions when used as part of a PM program.
