(Marposs: Auburn Hills, MI) -- Marposs, a world leader in measurement, inspection and test technologies, announces MECLAB.T40 by Aeroel—a high-precision laser instrument for quick and simple diameter measurement of hard metal blanks and full carbide cutting tools, odd or even edges. This system checks tolerances by comparing the actual dimensions to the programmed limits and is suited for off-line checking of drill bits, end mills, reamers and cutting tools as well as for checking the diameter, ovality and straightness of hard metal blanks and ground pins or cylinders. The MECLAB.T40 does not require a PC, making it ideal for use on the shop floor.

MECLAB.T40 features the Xactum XLS40/1500/B Laser Micrometer, an extremely accurate and repeatable measuring instrument with a measuring field up to 40 mm, linearity of ± 0.5 μm, repeatability of ± 0.05 μm and permanent self-calibration. Additionally, it comes with Aeorel’s exclusive NO-VAR technology which eliminates the potential of measuring drift due to changing room temperature by programming the coefficient of thermal expansion of the part.
