Wireless Ballbar
CNC Machine Tool Ballbar checks provide positioning performance and diagnosis of geometrical errors
API’s wireless Ballbar easily measures CNC machine performance to predict and diagnose servo errors and path deviations. The Ballbar is a simple, cost-effective solution that is designed to improve overall machining quality and reduce costs to all end users.
Measurements include:
Backlash, Squareness, Stick-Slip, Servo Lag, Scale, Mismatch, Machine & Servo Vibration
Spindlecheck
Spindle Analyzer diagnosis machine tools spindle axis performance by quickly measuring and rotational errors.
Spindle Analyzer diagnoses machine tool spindle error and is available in three models. The Dynamic model rapidly measures rotational error motion. Thermal model measures spindle stability of the machine in 5 degrees of freedom (X,Y,Z axis + pitch and yaw) along with thermal variance. A combination model is also available.
Measurements include:
Speed Verification, Check Bearings, Rotational Errors, Radial & Axial Errors, Machine Repeatability, Machine Vibrations Thermal Drift, Thermal Error Mapping
Swivel Check
The Swivelcheck™ utilizes a servo-driven motor in conjunction with an electronic level and a precision rotary encoder. Once set up, the system is capable of running in automated or manual modes.
Swivelcheck is the only tool that can be mounted off rotating axis center to measure swivel axes and trunnions without disassembling critical machine components
XD Laser
XD Laser simultaneously measures linear, angular, straightness and roll errors for rapid error assessment.
The award-winning XD Laser is a multidimensional laser measurement system that simultaneously measures all 6 degrees of freedom including linear, angular, straightness and roll errors for rapid machine tool error assessment.
Measurements Include:
Rotational accuracy, Geometric error, Angular error, Flatness, Squareness, Parallelism

Metrology Works Tripod Pro Series XT

When your application demands an ultra-rigid mount with even more height than a standard tripod, the Pro Series XT Tripod has you covered. Like the standard Pro Series Tripod, it features our patented TensionMAX design, and it also offers a maximum working height of 67″ with the legs fully extended. You can be confident that the Pro Series Tripod will not relax while in use so you can trust your measurements and avoid costly rework.

Metrology Works Tripod XP Tension Max

The XP tripod offers a lightweight, yet stable platform, and it incorporates our patented TensionMAX design.  When the legs are extended and tensioned, you can be confident that the TensionMAX XP Extra Portable Tripod will not relax while in use, allowing you to trust your measurements and avoid costly rework.
