Maximum precision

March 03, 2013
Menomonee Falls, USA. – Messer Cutting Systems NAFTA has added the “API Radian Tracker” to its range of alignment tools.

This is a laser measuring device that maps 3-D coordinates and delivers real-time information on the precision, parallelism and perpendicularity of the cutting machine. Comparison with the desired value allows precise calibration of the machine. Measurements can be made from any point of the machine with an accuracy of less than 0.001 inches (= 0.0254 millimetres).
