The Roundness tester for small and large diameters from SM Instruments are market-established and highly specialized measuring instruments due to the company's long tradition. They are used in the manufacturing industry, primarily to check the roundness of cylindrical components. Roundness is a crucial measure of quality and functionality, particularly in the areas of mechanical engineering, the automotive industry and aerospace. As a result, even the smallest deviations can lead to significant problems.
The component to be measured is placed on a rotating platform and rotated. A tactile sensor records the deviations from the ideal roundness. The in-house software "Circom" then analyses and evaluates this data. This software impresses with its simple and intuitive design. Both the roundness and over thirteen other parameters can be recorded and evaluated, and the measurements can also be carried out automatically. Thanks to special FFT analyses, sinusoidal components within the measured values can also be evaluated, which is particularly important in the field of rolling bearing production.
In addition to small stand systems with a table diameter of 160 mm, large systems with up to 650 mm are also available. In addition, intermediate sizes are also available, so that the right Roundness tester for small and large diameters can be offered.
