New Johnson Gage Thread Inspection System for Reverse Angle Buttress Threads


Bloomfield, CT January 9, 2009...Recognized as the industry leader in thread inspection systems for dimensional conformance verification, Johnson Gage has developed a new Thread Inspection System for the verification and in-process control of reverse-angle buttress threads commonly used in anti-splaying medical devices such as orthopedic implants. Available for either External or Internal thread forms, the new System is based on advances in grinding and manufacturing technologies. Similar in design to current Johnson Gage products utilized for medical applications such as bone screws and dental implants, the new System is suitable for both inspection and manufacturing environments. Common applications include design validation, dimensional inspection and conformance, initial manufacturing and tool verification, and in-process determination of capability degradation.
