Problem: Measuring tool length offsets and mismatch occurrences for CNC and other machines requires lengthy set-up times.
Solution: A durable anodized aluminum gage design offers standardized offset and calibration results across the board with minimal downtime.Eliminate Mismatch & Downtime For Your Offset Measurements
Switch Back to Analog Setting Gage for Maximum Reliability. Presenting here is a Touch Off Gage from Edge Technology that promises to decrease setup time and eliminate tool path mismatch. The analog output from this Touch Off Gage is far better than the simple on/off LED of standard setters. The Touch Off Gage allows you to standardize the way tool offsets are measured in your shop. This goes on to improve your machining output and maximize productivity. This #52-000 Touch Off Gage has a smaller aluminum contact face of 1/4 inches. It makes an economical alternative to the standard #04-000 Pro Touch Off Gage, also from Edge Technology. To use this gauge just lower the tool down onto the contact face until the indicator reads zero. At that point, you can be confident that the tooltip is exactly 4 inches from the surface the Pro Touch Off Gage is sitting on. The gauge arrives pre-calibrated, however, it can be easily adjusted using 1-2-3 blocks. The gage body is made from red anodized 6061-T6 aluminum for maximum durability. Edge Technology Tool is a leading manufacturer of milling and lathe machinist tools. This American-made brand offers a full lineup of indicators, gages, chucks, vises, and much more. Every product here is designed with the intent to minimize set-up times and maximize production during tool offsets.
