CNC operators know how frustrating it can be to get an accurate stroke measurement on HSK clamping sets.
With the new patent-pending, Precision Digital Stroke Gauge technology from Precision Drive Systems (PDS), more accurate stroke adjustment measurements are revealed without cumbersome calipers.
This easy-to-use, design is accurate to ±.001, works in any position and has a stable base that provides reliable, repeatable measurements without looking at the spindle nose.
How stroke measurements are simplified with the Precision Digital Stroke Gauge:
- Actuate the spindle tool release
- Place the gauge against the tool’s face and zero it out
- Set the gauge on a flat surface
- Check and compare the measurement displayed against the specification
- Adjust & re-check until the stroke is within tolerance
This valuable tool retails for only $299 and can be purchased online here. For more information, call PDS at 704-922-1206
