Take advantage of the motorised drive and 10 N measuring force to secure reproducible roughness readings and stable contact for delicate components; combine this with broad probe contact (Ø36 mm) for reliable inspections across thin workpieces and coordinate ordering or technical advice directly via Metav Werkzeuge.

Motorised Probe 10 N for 502.230/502.231/502.240/502.241 — Metav IndustryLine accessory with precise contact control

The Motorised Probe 10 N for 502.230/502.231/502.240/502.241 is a motor-driven ultrasonic probe designed as an accessory for surface roughness inspection in production and quality laboratories.

• Motorised drive for consistent measuring force
• 10 N nominal measuring force for stable contact
• Probe tip Ø36 mm for broader contact area
• Surface compatibility Ra < 2.5 μm

Consistent contact pressure for reproducible roughness data

A motorised drive provides a steady 10 N contact force, which significantly reduces variability introduced by manual probing. In roughness testing, stable contact pressure is essential: it keeps the tip engagement consistent and minimises operator-induced scatter in results. The motorised mechanism thus supports faster throughput in serial inspections and improves measurement repeatability, making it a practical choice where comparable results are required across batches.

Gentle handling of thin and lightweight components

The probe's probe tip Ø36 mm distributes contact over a larger area, lowering local stress on specimens. That design, together with an oscillation rod of Ø3.7 mm, means sensitive parts with at least 2 mm thickness and a minimum mass of 0.3 kg can be assessed without undue deformation. Compatibility with surfaces up to Ra < 2.5 μm ensures that the transducer is suitable for typical finishing stages; the larger tip also eases alignment and reduces the need for repeated re-measurement on fragile samples.

Efficient integration into measurement workflows

Compact dimensions of 197.5 x Ø46 mm and a net mass of 1 kg permit straightforward handling and mounting on the intended roughness testers. The accessory is compatible with models 502.230, 502.231, 502.240 and 502.241, facilitating fast retrofitting on existing benches. By standardising contact force and tip geometry, inspection cycles are shortened, which supports tighter production schedules and a reduced rate of false rejections in quality control.

Practical benefits for quality assurance and traceability

Using a motor-driven transducer improves the reliability of surface data and simplifies documentation. Stable force application and defined tip geometry aid in producing comparable measurements for process control and acceptance testing. For workshops and labs aiming to raise inspection consistency without complex retraining, this probe represents a targeted upgrade that strengthens decision-making in final inspection and incoming goods control.
