Centring Device with Dial Gauge M208.070 — Dial 0–3 mm, 0.01 mm resolution (Metav IndustryLine)

A Centring Device with Dial Gauge (M208.070) for precise location of bore and shaft centres in workshop measuring and quality control applications

• Dial gauge 0.01 mm resolution
• Range 0–3 mm dial measurement
• Complete set with probes and transport case
• Lightweight 0.85 kg for easy handling

Fast, measurable centring with workshop-grade accuracy

The device delivers reliable centre-finding by converting radial runout into a readable analogue signal via the dial gauge. The measuring travel of 0–3 mm and a reading step of 0.01 mm allow technicians to detect minimal deviations during rotation, making alignment tasks faster and more transparent. This setup is especially useful where visual judgement is limited: mounting the instrument and rotating the spindle or workpiece reveals the runout on the indicator, so adjustments can be made until the needle rests within the acceptable range. The mechanical design prioritises repeatable readings, which benefits routine checks and incoming inspection alike.

Ready-to-use kit that speeds up setup and changeovers

Delivered as a complete package, the centring device includes external and internal probes in lengths of 50 mm, 100 mm and 150 mm, enabling use on a broad span of bore diameters without additional purchases. The supplied transport case protects components during movement between machines and reduces downtime spent searching for adapters. At 0.85 kg, the instrument balances stability with portability, so changeovers between jobs or machines are straightforward and efficient. This configuration reduces set-up time and keeps the workflow lean in both small workshops and maintenance departments.

Designed for repeatability and everyday workshop use

The analogue indicator is simple to read and robust in shop-floor environments, while the compact footprint makes the device suitable for locating centres on parts up to the indicated operational range. Its construction supports repeated measurements with consistent mechanical behaviour, which translates into fewer re-measurements and less process variation. For production and maintenance teams that value direct, understandable readings over complex electronics, the instrument provides a pragmatic balance of repeatability, usability and mechanical reliability, helping to maintain throughput without sacrificing measurement confidence.

FAQ

How does the centring device indicate the centre of a bore or shaft? The dial gauge on the centring device translates radial deviation into needle movement; by rotating the workpiece and observing the indicator, the highest and lowest deflections are identified and adjusted until the reading is centred, providing a repeatable centre position with M208.070.

What are the measurement range and resolution of the indicator? The instrument features a dial travel of 0–3 mm and a readability of 0.01 mm, offering fine resolution for alignment and centre-finding tasks using the analogue dial.

Which probes are included with the device? The delivery contains external and internal probes with lengths of 50 mm, 100 mm and 150 mm, allowing adaptation to different bore diameters without additional accessories.

Is the device suitable for mobile use between machines? Yes. The centring device is compact and weighs 0.85 kg, and it is supplied in a transport case for protection during movement and storage.

For which applications is this centring device recommended? This instrument is recommended for locating the centre of bores and shafts in workshop measuring, maintenance and quality-control tasks, particularly where straightforward, repeatable analogue readings are preferred over digital systems.
