(ADCOLE Corp.: Marlborough, MA) -- A new software option for their camshaft measuring machines, which can measure axial profile across the industry’s newer cam lobes, and have become narrower and produced with tighter grinding tolerances, is being introduced by ADCOLE Corp. of Marlborough, Massachusetts.

The ADCOLE 911 Camshaft Gage is ideal for measuring all automobile and diesel cam lobe lifts (symmetrical and asymmetrical profiles), injector lobe profiles, journal bearings, pump rotors, eccentric shafts, and pistons.
