Special ball insert D 3 mm — accessory for indirect tooth-thickness measurement, module 1.75 (Metav IndustryLine)

The Special ball insert D 3 mm is an accessory designed for indirect measurement of gear tooth thickness on components with module 1.75, ideal for integration into gear-checking setups and comparators.

• 3 mm measuring ball diameter
• Compatible with module 1.75 gears
• Supplied pairwise for matched checks

Consistent tooth-thickness results with a defined contact geometry

The compact measuring ball establishes a repeatable contact point for indirect tooth-thickness measurement, reducing variability caused by crown or flank differences. By using a precisely dimensioned 3 mm sphere, the contact radius becomes consistent across checks, which improves comparability between workpieces and inspection cycles. This approach is particularly effective when evaluating spur gears or small pinions where direct contact probes cannot access the groove reliably. The result is a measurable improvement in process control and fewer false rejections during batch inspection.

Fast adaptation and reduced setup time for shop-floor inspection

Supplied pairwise, the inserts are matched to facilitate quick exchange and balanced measurement across mating positions, so setups for gear checks run more smoothly. The small mass and compact form make mounting straightforward on common gear gauges and fixtures; lightweight construction minimises influence on the measuring head and shortens settling times. For production environments where throughput matters, the accessory supports efficient measurement routines while maintaining the required reproducibility.

Clear evidence for quality assurance and traceable inspection routines

As part of the Metav IndustryLine portfolio, this measuring accessory contributes to a traceable inspection chain and aligns with workshop-level quality concepts. The defined module 1.75 specification and precise 3 mm diameter enable reliable documentation of measurement procedures and support repeatable results during routine audits. When combined with calibrated measuring equipment, the use of matched ball inserts helps to reduce operator-dependent scatter and strengthens confidence in acceptance decisions for gear parts.

FAQ

What is the primary application of this insert?
The Special ball insert D 3 mm (SKU M309.185) is intended for indirect measurement of gear tooth thickness on components specified for module 1.75.

Can the insert be used on different gear modules?
The insert is manufactured for module 1.75 applications; for other modules, matching inserts with the appropriate ball diameter should be selected to maintain measurement accuracy.

How is the insert supplied and handled during inspection?
The item is supplied pairwise to allow matched checks; the paired delivery supports balanced measurement positions and straightforward replacement during inspection cycles.

Does the insert change the measurement procedure compared with direct probes?
Using a ball insert for indirect checks shifts the contact geometry; this provides reliable, repeatable contact points where direct probes cannot reach, improving comparability across similar parts.

Is this accessory suitable for use on production metrology benches?
Yes, the insert is designed as a precision accessory for gear inspection rigs and comparators; its compact form supports fast adaptation on shop-floor metrology setups.
