All-in-One Measuring System



Mitutoyo America Corporation has released the RTX Roundtracer Extreme all-in-one measuring system that integrates roundness, contour and surface roughness measurement functions on a single platform to save time and improve productivity.

"This advanced CNC machine utilizes speed, accuracy and operability to measure a wide variety of workpieces with various geometries, such as camshafts and bearings," said a company spokesperson.

Key features:

  • Enhanced flexibility: New motorized sliding axis, detector and detector holder gives it the ability to change the stylus angle, making it easier to perform ID measurement of thick workpieces while avoiding interference.
  • High-throughput roundness measurement: Higher reproducibility theta-axis drive speed is achieved through increased turntable rigidity.
  • Advanced surface roughness measurement: Increased maximum measuring diameter, support for 3D surface texture measurement and lead (twist) analysis.
  • Faster X and Z axes drive speeds: "Roundtracer Extreme features increased speeds with a maximum of 100 mm/sec with improved positioning accuracy and reduced positioning times compared with conventional models," said the spokesperson.
  • Better functionality and usability: The ergonomic remote box enhances the user's experience with clearly laid out buttons and controls.
