PEN

Wireless machine tool measurement

Pen can be used for measurements like the run-out of machine spindles, back-lash in machine guideways, repeatability in fixtures or machine movements.

Features

Wireless
Bluetooth (perform measurements with machine doors closed
High accuracy
The measuring sensor is a LVDT sensor with ± 1 mm or ± 2.5 mm measurement range with high accuracy (within 0.001 mm)
Max-Min
Max-Min function used to measure run-out in machine spindles. The Pen sensor is mounted in the preferred measurement direction and measurement. Measurements are compiled over an adjustable measurement time and the results are displayed as a difference between the maximum and minimum values
Live Display
Live Display for Pen used to record measurement values from Pen sensors. The function displays the values from the probe as real time values but can also record measurement values and present a fixed value for a measurement point
Sizes
Pen is available in two sizes : P100 Measuring range: ±1mm Length: 60 mm (2.36”)P250 Measuring range: ±2,5mm Length: 85 mm (3,34”)

Acoem Pen checks run-out and backlash

Pen is a battery-powered measuring probe that connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to a mobile device using an App. Pen can be used for measurements like the run-out of machine spindles, check spindle alignment, back-lash in machine guideways, repeatability in fixtures or machine movements.

The wireless transmission enables the sensor to be mounted in the machine without compromising the safty aspects for the operator with the machine doors closed.

Benefits of the Pen

  • Bluetooth (perform measurements with machine doors closed.)
  • High accuracy (within 0.001 mm)
  • Remote Display
  • Documentation
  • App based

Measurement range with high accuracy

The measuring sensor is a LVDT sensor with ± 1 mm or ± 2.5 mm measurement range with high accuracy (within 0.001 mm). The measuring sensor and battery assembly are enclosed and have a protection class of IP65 which will with stand coolant and oil.

The built-in battery is charged using a USB micro connector and has an operating time of 11 hours. The enclosure for the battery box contains built-in magnets that allow the device to be easily attached to a measuring stand or directly on the machine stand.

Min-Max function for run-out measurements

Max-Min function is used to measure run-out on machine spindles. The Acoem sensor is mounted in the preferred measurement direction compiles over an adjustable measurement time. The results are displayed as a difference between the maximum and minimum values.

Live Display of measurement values

Live Display for Pen is used to:

  • Record measurement values from Acoem Pen sensors.
  • Displays the values in real time
  • Records and present a fixed value for a measurement point.
  • Record measurement values in a list manually or register and save file.

Pen is available in two sizes

P100 Measuring range: ±1mm Length: 60 mm (2.36”)

P250 Measuring range: ±2,5mm Length: 85 mm (3,34”)

Safe and reliable measurement of run-out using a smart pen

Acoem expands the range of measurement functions with the Pen for measuring run-out on machine spindles or backlash in machine axes.
