Pratt & Whitney Introduces Most Accurate
Bearing Measuring Instrument in the World
Bloomfield, CT, February 1, 2006 – Pratt &
Whitney has announced the development of a new
measuring system designed for roller bearing
applications. Easy to use and the most
accurate bearing measuring instrument on the market
today, the
Pratt Whitney Labmaster Bearing Measuring Instrument
measures
tapered bearings, needle bearings, ball bearings,
spherical bearings, and cylindrical bearings used
for the aerospace, automotive, and medical
industry.
A popular add-on for the bearing remanufacture &
repair industry is the axial internal clearance
(axial play) and radial internal clearance (radial
play) kits. These accessories can measure bearing
wear and provide important failure analysis.
A few of the most popular bearing characteristics
that can be measured on the Pratt Whitney Labmaster
Bearing Measuring Instrument include:
-
Radial Internal Clearance (Radial Internal Play)
-
Axial Internal Clearance (Axial Internal Play /
End Play)
-
Internal Diameter of Bearing (Inner Ring)
-
External Diameter of Bearing (Outer Ring)
-
Inner Raceway of Bearing
-
Outer Raceway of Bearing
-
Shield Thickness
-
Ball Bearing Diameter
Pratt & Whitney designs, manufactures, and
services metrology systems used in gage calibration
laboratories throughout the Americas, Europe and
Asia. Pratt & Whitney product lines include: gage
calibration instruments, comparators, height gages,
checking instruments, roundness gages, thickness
measuring instruments, geometry & form metrology
systems, laser measuring machines, laser
micrometers, material testing instruments
(tensile/compression), torque instruments, as well
as master and setting gages.
Specialty applications such as gears, bearings,
shafts, balls, optics, films, API threads, tapers,
rings, blocks, or your precision components can also
be measured on P&W instruments.
