What is a height gauge?
A Height Gauge is an universal instrument used in workshops to quickly and accurately measure the dimensions of mechanical parts. This versatile instrument is essential for manufacturing, engineering and quality control.
Height gauges are primarily designed to measure heights, lengths, distances, diameters and squareness of parts. Their main success in the workshop is due to their ease of use and speed of measurement.
There are different types of height gauges, which can be selected according to a company’s needs, applications and budget.
Height Gauge applications
Height gauges are used in a wide range of applications, including:
Quality Control : In manufacturing and production, height gauges are essential to ensure that components meet specified tolerances and standards. They can be used to check the accuracy of machined parts and assemblies.
Engineering : Engineers use height gauges to make accurate measurements during product design and development. These measuring devices are essential for creating prototypes and ensuring that designs meet exact specifications.
Metalworking : In the metalworking sector, height gauges are used to prepare for machining operations, check the height of tools and measure the height of machined parts.
Choosing the Right Height Gauge
When choosing a gauge, the following factors should be taken into account:
Precision and Accuracy : choose a height gauge that offers the precision required for your specific application.
Measuring Range : Make sure the gauge has a sufficient measuring range for the objects to be measured. Some gauges are designed for small-scale measurements, while others are suitable for larger objects. Trimos, for example, are available with different measuring ranges from 300 to 1800 mm.
Ease of Use : Pay particular attention to ease of use, especially if the measuring device is to be used by several people or by people with little training. All modern workshops are equipped with user-friendly, robust devices. Even the most advanced Trimos height gauges (e.g. V7 or V9) are designed for the toughest production environments.
Communication : Highly flexible data transmission opens up new possibilities. Whether via RS232, USB or wireless, measured values can be easily exported to any application.
Durability : Choose a height-measuring device made from high-quality materials to ensure durability and longevity, especially when used in harsh industrial environments.
