Optical Measurement Equipment by RB Metrology - Profile Projectors in Bulk
In the realm of precision engineering and quality inspection, profile projectors (also known as optical comparators) play a pivotal role. These devices enable accurate measurement of two-dimensional geometries, essential for verifying the dimensional accuracy of manufactured parts. As industries continue to evolve with tighter tolerances and more complex designs, the demand for high-precision optical measurement tools has significantly increased.
RB Metrology, a trusted name in the metrology industry, offers a wide range of robust and accurate profile projectors suitable for various industrial needs. Whether you're part of an automotive plant, aerospace facility, or electronics manufacturer, investing in bulk from RB Metrology ensures quality, consistency, and cost-efficiency.
What Are Profile Projectors?
Profile projectors are non-contact optical instruments designed to magnify the silhouette or outline of a part onto a screen for measurement and comparison with design specifications. They combine optical magnification, precise illumination, and dimensional measurement capabilities, making them indispensable in many manufacturing quality control processes.
Key Components:
- Projection Screen: A large circular or rectangular screen where the image is displayed.
- Lenses: Interchangeable magnification lenses (commonly 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x).
- Illumination System: Both surface (episcopic) and contour (diascopic) lighting are used to visualize features.
- X-Y Stage: Where the object is placed; includes micrometer adjustments.
- Digital Readout (DRO): For precise numerical measurement of part features.
Types of Profile Projectors:
- Horizontal Profile Projectors: Suitable for larger parts, especially shafts and turned components.
- Vertical Profile Projectors: Ideal for flat components such as stamped or laser-cut parts.
