METROLOGY ACCESSORIES

The Repeat-O-Meter is a high-precision instrument that provides a fast check on surface plate repeatability with readings taken with a dial indicator. This gauge detects local error, not overall flatness. The base has an adjustment knob for zero-setting the cartridge-type gauging head, and all contact points of the gauging cartridge are carbide and lapped to a fine finish. The instrument also accommodates AGD indicators with .375" (9.5mm) diameter stems. Gauge, indicator and cases sold separately.

The Planekator measures the overall flatness of your surface plate. It enables you to take direct indicator readings of your surface plate with autocollimator-accuracy, but without the complicated mathematics of the autocollimator. When used in conjunction with a Starrett Repeat Reading Gauge, you'll have a very accurate idea of the flatness of your surface plate.

Each kit includes a precision granite straight edge, one adjustable support, one fixed support, a certified 0.00002" dial indicator, an indicator carriage and a heavy-duty travel case. The straight edge comes equipped with lifting handles, correction tape indicating the accuracy at 1" intervals, and includes a NIST-traceable certificate that meets ISO/IEC 17025 requirements.

The Planekator straight edge should be at least equal to the full width, and at least equal to 50% of the length of the largest surface you will be inspecting.
