Runout tester M208.201 – 500 mm measuring range, 0.02 mm accuracy (Metav IndustryLine)

The Runout tester M208.201 is a bench-mounted runout inspection device for radial and rotational accuracy checks on components up to 500 mm, designed for precision workshops and metrology tables.

• 500 mm measuring range
• Accuracy 0.02 mm for precise control
• Cast frame and centres for dimensional stability
• Movable centres with 16 mm travel

Consistent measurement performance for quality control

The instrument delivers a defined measurement environment that reduces variation in production testing. With a guaranteed accuracy of 0.02 mm, the bench enables traceable runout checks and consistent pass/fail decisions during incoming inspection or in-process control. The 500 mm measuring range covers typical shaft and rotor lengths encountered in toolrooms and small-component manufacturing, while the measuring height of 170 mm allows clearance for standard fixtures. Operationally, the device supports repeatable radial checks by securing the component between centres and rotating it under observation, which reduces rework and speeds throughput.

Stable cast construction reduces setup uncertainty

A heavy, rigid chassis improves reproducibility by lowering natural vibration and thermal sensitivity. The frame and tailstock components are cast for rigidity, providing a stable reference surface that maintains alignment under load; the unit’s mass (approx. 80 kg) further dampens external disturbances. The twin centres are machined to a 60° tip angle and 176 mm tip height to suit common shaft profiles, and the movable centre travel of 16 mm allows fine axial positioning without additional fixtures. Together, these features mean fewer adjustments before measurement and a lower risk of operator-induced deviation.

Practical dimensions and integration into the workshop

Designed for placement on a metrology table or dedicated measuring bench, the tester’s overall length of 920 mm and compact cross‑section (cross arm Ø10×150 mm, column Ø12×176 mm) make it straightforward to integrate into existing inspection stations. The unit supports standard rotational checks and can be combined with external measuring instruments for amplitude analysis or dial indicators for visual readout. The instrument is supplied as a robust bench device suited to production and maintenance environments where repeatability and mechanical stability are priorities; documentation and traceable identifiers assist in process control and inventory handling.
