Surface Finish Gage
From Jenoptik Industrial Metrology comes a crankshaft journal surface finish gage that greatly reduces the time required to collect and assess measurement data of virtually any crankshaft, any of its journals.
SafeLock System
The SafeLock system from Wildeck Inc. provides safety and peace-of-mind in a vertical reciprocating conveyor (VRC). All Wildeck VRCs incorporate a secure free-fall braking system designed to handle the full load rating of the lift, but slippage could occur if an operator inadvertently exceeds the VRC's rating during the loading process.
