In industrial manufacturing, laser engraving is often viewed as a simple finishing step. But when marking problems occur, the consequences can quickly spread throughout the production process. A barcode that won’t scan, a part that fails traceability requirements, or a mark that becomes unreadable after coating can all create unexpected production bottlenecks. These issues lead…
We have talked many times about how air gaging allows you to measure many jobs faster, more conveniently, and more accurately than other gaging methods. In the measurement of all hole conditions, air gaging is unsurpassed for speed and accuracy, while in checking any dimensional characteristic, air offers sufficient magnification and reliability to measure tolerances…

Air gaging represents the method of choice for most high-resolution measurements on large production runs. While quite durable and reliable compared to mechanical gages, air gaging is not care-free. Accurate air gaging requires proper maintenance of the tooling, and vigilance over the air supply. Although the factory air supply may not be under the gage…
