Innovative gauge head for in-process measurements of uninterrupted outer diameters
DM400
IN-process measuring head for uninterrupted surfaces. With a robust design and Swiss-precision measurement. Movomatic can measure in the sub-micron area.
The standard measuring head can measure workpieces with diameters from 5 to 80 mm. With additional equipment it is also possible to rise the diameter.
The DM400 has only one connecting cable for all functions and power.

Range of use:
With their robust design, high measuring precision and easy handling, the DM400 gauge heads are used for a wide range of in-process and post-process applications for workpieces with uninterrupted surfaces.
Electronic features:
One single CAN bus cable is used for operation and connection to the control electronics. Measurement data is transmitted digitally and therefore fail-safe and independent of the cable length. Thanks to the modern field bus technology, the number of connecting cables is considerably reduced when using multiple gauge heads with one control electronics.
Mechanical features:
The whole measuring system is integrated in one housing which assures high mechanical and thermal stability and facilitates assembly and maintenance tasks.
• Wide range of application
• Measuring head can be used inside the grinding machine (wet area)
• Digital communication from the measuring head to the control unit
• Swiss precision
