The PROFILAB.X40 System is an automatic laser measuring station, useful to check a wide range of turned or ground parts, as motor shafts, hard metal blanks, drill bits, cutting tools.

The Profilab systems uses an Xactum high speed, high accuracy Laser Micrometer to measure the diameter and the edge positions of the part, which is mounted on a motor driven slide and moved by a linear motor; the slide is fit with a digital linear scale to read out the longitudinal position of the sample. To assure maximum accuracy and stiffness, the slide is aligned and mounted on a flat granite basement. The part is translated to the measuring positions, following a pre-set “measuring program” stored in the computer memory. It is also possible to rotate the part, in order to get roundness or runout, at any given position. By using suitable fixtures and by processing the diameter, the edge positions and the longitudinal displacement information it is possible to check several dimensions, on a number of different parts. The measured data are processed by a PC with integrated touch sensitive 19” TFT screen; the Aeroel software provides an extremely friendly user interface. The software is “locked” and self-starting so the operator will have the program running immediately (no starting from Windows!) .
