ProScale Model 580 Measuring System

ProScale Model 580 shown with Sliding Carriage and Encoder and End View of Scale profile

The ProScale Model 580 uses Incremental inductive measurement technology.
It is a general purpose measuring device with an integrated iGlide® friction bearing system. The Model 580 uses a custom extrusion design incorporating a dual rail for the bearings. A sliding carriage assembly captures the Encoder and moves along the scale minimizing pitch & yaw of the encoder for the utmost in accuracy and repeatability.
The Model 580 was designed as a stand alone measuring system or to be the foundation of systems designed by end users for their particular dimensional measurement applications.

Features:

  • No Gap to Set: All ProScale Encoders are "captive" on the measuring Scale so you never need to worry about setting or resetting the Encoder gap.

  • Battery or 12-24 VDC Operation: Several Readouts are available that operate on 1 CR123 Lithium battery, or 12-24 VDC.

  • Enhanced In-Place Accuracy: Model 580 systems may be ordered with a General Purpose Digital Readout incorporating non-linear scaling and temperature compensation.

  • High Speed Encoder: The carriage/encoder can be moved up to 60 inches per second

  • Versatility: The carriage plate has several holes predrilled for mounting the Digital Readout, a wireless data transmitter, a handle or other user features as required for the user's application.

  • Scalability: The Model 580 supports multiple Encoders and Readouts operating simultaneously on the same Scale.

  • Wireless Flexibility: ProScale Encoders or Readouts can be equipped with our 2 way ProRF-SPC or ProRF-Encoder wireless data systems.

  • LIFETIME limited warranty.   MADE IN USA
