Air Gage works as single or dual master air gaging system.

Press Release Summary:



Universal Dimensionair® features built-in magnification and zeroing controls. By selecting the appropriate dial configuration, product can be adjusted for use with any dual master air tooling or span master. In single master systems, gage is calibrated to zero or reference measurement. Dual master systems use 2 masters to calibrate maximum and minimum. For go/no-go applications, air gage is calibrated with both masters or setting gages set for both tolerances.

Mahr Federal to Feature Universal Dimensionair® at WESTEC 2006



PROVIDENCE, RI -- As part of its array of dimensional gaging products and metrology systems, Mahr Federal will feature its new Universal Dimensionair(R) gage at the WESTEC Advanced Productivity Exhibition, March 27 - 30, in Los Angeles, CA. The company will occupy booth #2649.

The Universal Dimensionair has introduced a new capability to Mahr Federal's proven Dimensionair line of air gaging: the ability to use either single or dual master air tooling. Based on the precision of the standard Mahr Federal Dimensionair, the innovative Universal Dimensionair is part of a new series of adjustable magnification air comparators that combines the best of a differential air system--excellent stability, accuracy and fast response--with the ability to work both as a single master or dual master air gaging system.

"Air gaging has increased in popularity in recent years as part tolerances have gotten tighter," said George Schuetz, Director Precision Gages for Mahr Federal. "Air gaging is fast and accurate, readily used in production environments, and the gages even help clean parts by blowing dirt away. The flexibility of the adjustable balanced air system on the new Universal Dimensionair provides stable, reliable results, and allows for single mastering or dual master setup quickly and easily."

In single master systems, the gage is calibrated to zero or a reference measurement, and the user relies on the gage system accuracy to determine tolerance limits. Dual master systems use two masters to calibrate maximum and minimum. For go/no-go applications, the air gage is usually calibrated with both masters or setting gages set for both tolerances.

When calibrated with Mahr Federal restrictor kits, the Universal Dimensionair offers the same performance and stability as a standard Dimensionair, and can be used with Mahr Federal tooling and one master for fast, single mastering air gage applications.

With the addition of built-in magnification and zeroing controls, the Universal Dimensionair is also capable of acting as a dual master air gage comparator. By selecting the appropriate dial configuration, the Universal Dimensionair can be adjusted for use with virtually any dual master air tooling or span master.

Mahr Federal, a member of the Mahr Group, is known worldwide for its expertise in providing dimensional measurement solutions. The ISO 9001:2000-certified company manufactures and markets a wide variety of dimensional metrology products, and is headquartered in Providence, RI.
