WIRELESS GAUGING HANDLES WITH COLOR SCREEN

I-Wave2 and Wave2 are the most advanced and precise solution for manual off-line measurement. These smart gauges monitor and improve our customers’ quality by providing the best measuring performance on the market (sub-micron precision), and, through Marposs Industrial computers, measurements storage  and statistical analysis. By connecting the gauges with a variety of gaging heads, the i-Wave2 and Wave2 can measure all kinds of internal diameters (from 3mm up), external diameters and gaps.

The I-Wave2 and Wave2 are innovative rechargeable, wireless gauging handles with an integrated 1.8″ TFT color screen, able to display the measurement value directly in the operator’s hand. By integrating a computer into the gauging handles, Marposs has achieved an unprecedented level of convenience and performance in manual gauging technology.

How to make the I-Wave2 and Wave2 experience even better? The Ready2Gauge app is the perfect solution if you don’t require the advanced functions of a gauging computer. This app is easy to use and allows direct programming, data storage and export in the most popular formats like csv, txt, etc. This means no additional cost for specific training.

Ready2Gauge is available for free on IOS (Apple Store), Android (Play Store) and Windows PC.

On a final note, the I-Wave2 and Wave2  represents an extremely flexible solution, able to satisfy every customer’s request both in advanced applications and as a stand-alone gauges, portable, easy to use and to program.

I-Wave2 and Wave2 are the latest and most innovative gauging handles from Marposs. They can integrate MBG plug heads (Mechanical bore gauge) or EBG plug heads (Electronic bore gauge) for either bore, countersink or snap gauging heads depending on the customers’ needs and allows quick replacement of any gauging head. The I-Wave2 and Wave2 integrated 1.8″ TFT color screen displays the measurement value and the measurement status directly in the operator’s hand.

According to Marposs’ tradition, the I-Wave2 and Wave2 are the ideal solution for dimensional inspection in the workshop environment thanks to its high protection degree against coolants and dust and its innovative magnetic buttons system.

The I-Wave2 and Wave2 handles automatically transmits via Bluetooth the measurement to any Marposs or commercial/industrial PC within 10 meters. When operated farther away, the handles store the last measure until the operator returns in range and transmits it to the computer.

The ergonomic design, with twin push buttons, automatic display orientation and inductive recharging system makes the Marposs I-Wave2 and Wave2 extremely easy and comfortable to use for the operators.

The App Ready2Gauge is available for free for iOS, Android and PC with Windows operating system (Win7 and Win10). To download the app refer to the section “Download”.

Applications

The Marposs I-Wave2 and Wave2 handles allows three levels of measurement process.

The handles can be used as a stand-alone gauge by assembling the required (and interchangeable) bore, countersink, snap or depth head. Programmability from iOS/Android/Windows 7 or 10 PC makes they the state of the art for simple manual gauging.

Marposs can also provide full application, with its own Merlin and Merlin Plus gauge computers, allowing the management of multiple gauges and guided measurement sequence for complex parts (engine block, crankshaft and cylinder head).

The I-Wave2 and Wave2 handles are part of the Marposs Smart Solutions for Industry 4.0. The innovative guided sequence system of the Marposs gauging industrial computers directly turns on the screen of the I-Wave2 and Wave2 to be used for the next measurement. These innovative features, in combination with the ability to communicate and to provide feedback to the factory systems make the Marposs Smart Solution an ideal choice for dimensional inspection in mass production plant. In addition to an extremely accurate measurement, this system interacts with the factory management system providing information to increase the customer’s ability to monitor, control and flexibly configure the production process.
