The L.S. Starrett Co. has appointed four new executives to its global organization, further strengthening its corporate management at the highest levels.

The gaging setting standard is essential for accurate measurements in high-performance manufacturing, despite often being overlooked. While digital calipers are versatile, they lack the precision of comparative gages that rely on a master-setting standard for sub-micron accuracy. Proper use of this standard can enhance performance and lower calibration costs.

This article discusses the important aspects of using and caring for thread and cylindrical limit gages to ensure accuracy and extend their lifespan.

This article will explore benefits of limit gaging and the advantages of functional gaging.

Optical Gaging Products (OGP®) announced the next evolution of SmartScope® 3D Multisensor Metrology systems: SmartScope M-Series.

Experts advise that calibration schedules should be both flexible and systematic. Alongside calibration and inspection, simple practices such as regular cleaning and proper storage are crucial for maintaining the accuracy and longevity of measurement tools, ensuring consistently high standards of precision and quality in manufacturing processes.

How new optical sensors work and how they might be used to address critical needs for part qualification and process control in precision manufacturing applications.

Today, modern digital gages have underused capabilities that allow for even greater ease of use and accessibility for all users.

Today, there are myriad ways to breathe new life into existing gages without the need to invest in new gaging. Users are familiar with the gages they have. They may be under quality control cycles, are easy to use, provide good results, and have proven themselves over time.

Gages have evolved throughout the years beginning with mechanical, then electronic models, and now convenient wireless electronic versions have come on the scene. Each type has an important place in today’s quality control and inspection processes.
