Big Kaiser Precision Tooling offers the entry-level Innotool Diaset benchtop tool presetter equipped with a 5.7" color LCD touchscreen and camera. This vision-based camera version enables one-touch angle, radius, diameter and length measurements. An optional incident light can be used for inspection of cutting edges for built-up edge and flank wear or fractures.
The presetter is built with a stable measuring column and mineral cast base. According to the company, its strong foundation ensures rigidity and high temperature resistance for good repeatability and positioning accuracy of 0.0001". These capabilities are also supported by horizontal and vertical slides that smoothly move along hardened and precision-ground guideways, both with pneumatic locking mechanisms and foot-pedal control.
The high-precision rotating spindle provides runout measurement to an accuracy of less than 0.0008" TIR, the company says, and is available with either integral ISO-50 or ISO-40 taper spindles. Reduction adapters are available for other common interfaces including ISO, HSK, KM, Polygon and more. Various combinations of maximum diameter/maximum length are available. Two built-in USB ports enable simultaneous external data saving and label printer connection in addition to the presetter’s internal storage capacity of 99 reference points.
