Pre-Setting Device with Large Measurement Range



"Compact, reliable and cost-effective are all characteristics of the new pre-setting device GARANT VG Basic from the Hoffmann Group," said a company spokesperson. "This pre-setting device comes with a range of basic functions at a lower cost that will enable users to measure cutting tools quickly and accurately and on a budget. In addition, the GARANT VG Basic features fully-fledged electronic measuring equipment with a digital camera and a measurement range of up to 400 mm on both axes. A 10 inch touchscreen, three USB ports and an attractive design add the finishing touches to the product. The user can also include a label printer in the order, which will enable them to print the measuring results onto an adhesive label to stick on the tool-thereby providing a greater degree of transparency."

On the new GARANT VG Basic pre-setting device, both the X and Z axes can be moved by up to 400 mm using a pneumatic quick adjustment device. This requires a compressed air supply of at least 73 PSI. When an additional fine adjustment is made, the two axes can be positioned accurately enough that the exact tool dimensions can be determined using the measuring system and the high-performance CMOS color camera with 17x magnification. The device is easy to operate-an intuitively designed menu guides the user through the program. The GARANT VG Basic can be used at the machine or production island.

The pre-setting device rests on height-adjustable feet, which support a sturdy base body made of high-strength aluminum and a high-quality sheet metal housing. The software is available in all common language versions. The user can choose to have the measuring result displayed in either millimeters or inches. The product is supplied with a cutting edge cleaner, SK 50 needle bearing spindle, a coiled compressed air hose and a 1/4" coupling connector. In addition to the label printer, optional accessories include a subframe cupboard, calibration mandrel, spindle clamp and a variety of reducers.
