Manual swivel unit for flexible positioning

Mahr Engineered Solutions has now developed a manual swivel unit for the roughness and contour measuring machines in the MarSurf family. It features a custom-made jaw chuck with individual clamping jaws. The new design increases the accessibility of measuring points, which customers can now quickly and easily reach on their workpieces.

Like any other clamping device, the manual swivel unit can be mounted directly on the perforated plate of the measuring station. This allows the customer to add two rotation axes to the standard TY axis: the workpiece can now be positioned manually with extreme flexibility by swivelling (TB axis ± 105°) and rotating (TA axis = 360°). Both axes have a digital display unit and can therefore be aligned with an accuracy of one tenth of a degree. This makes it easy for the customer to reach the desired measuring points and record the required measuring parameters quickly and, above all, reproducibly.
