What are Profile Projectors?
Profile Projectors, also known as Optical Comparators, are measuring instruments that use light and magnifying lenses to examine the shape or size of a workpiece by projecting its shadow onto a large screen. This makes it easier and more accurate to inspect small parts.
How Profile Projectors Work
- Projecting the Workpiece
The workpiece is placed on an adjustable table base. Light from the lamp inside the machine projects the shadow of the object through the magnifying lens. - Screen Analysis
The display screen allows the user to compare the shape or size of the workpiece to a standard or to an overlay chart to measure the deviation. - Dimensional Measurement
Use a digital micrometer or software to analyze length, width or angle values.
Key Features of Profile Projectors
- High Accuracy
With adjustable magnification from 10x to 100x, it is possible to inspect small details such as notches or angles. - Easy to Use
The large screen allows multiple team members to view the measurements simultaneously. - Suitable for a variety of applications
Suitable for manufacturing industries such as mold, medical device and electronics.
Applications of Profile Projectors in Industry
- Inspecting the shape of parts
Used to inspect complex machine parts, such as gears or nuts - Measuring mold accuracy
Profile projectors are important tools for factories that produce plastic or metal molds - Quality Control
Helps check the deviation of workpieces on the production line to meet standards
Tips for choosing Profile Projectors
- Choose the right magnification
If you are inspecting very small workpieces, you should choose a machine with high magnification. - Screen and software system
You should choose a machine with a clear display screen and software that helps analyze data. - Support the weight of the workpiece
If you have to inspect heavy objects, you should choose a machine with a strong support base.
New technology in Profile Projectors
