The ideal measuring table for precise measurements
A measuring stage is an indispensable tool for precise measurements in various industries such as mechanical engineering, metalworking or quality assurance. When selecting a measuring stage, various options are available, including
- Granite slabs,
- Cast iron measuring plates,
- Measuring plates with measuring stand,
- Measuring tables with height gauge or tripods.
Granite slab as measuring table
A granite slab as a measuring table offers excellent stability and precision. Granite is a natural stone with very low thermal expansion, which means that it hardly deforms with temperature fluctuations. This means that the accuracy of the measurements is maintained over a longer period of time. Granite slabs are also known for their excellent damping properties, which minimize vibrations and lead to more accurate results. In addition, they are resistant to wear, corrosion and chemical influences, which ensures their longevity and reliability.
Cast iron measuring plate as measuring table
Cast iron measuring plates are another popular option for measuring tables. Gray cast iron is characterized by its high stability and hardness. It is robust and resistant to wear and deformation. Cast iron measuring plates provide good vibration dampening, although they may not be as effective as granite plates. They are well suited for applications where high precision is required but extreme thermal or chemical conditions are not encountered.
Measuring plates with measuring tripod or altimeter as measuring table
Measuring plates with measuring tripod offer a versatile option for measuring tables. They consist of a measuring plate mounted on a stable tripod or also height measuring device. This configuration makes it possible to adjust the height of the measuring plate and set it to different requirements and working heights. Measuring plates with a measuring tripod offer flexibility and mobility, as they can be easily moved and adapted to different work areas. They are particularly practical in environments where multiple measurements need to be taken at different locations.
Choosing the right measuring stage is crucial for precise measurements. A granite plate offers excellent stability, precision and resistance to external influences. Cast iron measuring plates also offer stability and durability, but may not be as thermally stable as granite plates. Measuring plates with a measuring stand offer flexibility and mobility, but may not be as sturdy as solid plates. Choose the measuring stage that best fits your needs and applications to ensure accurate and reliable measurements. We will be happy to advise you.
