Milling Spindle Gauges

Drawbar Force Gauges

This critical element–the tool clamping force–is often never measured after a machine is put into service.

Runout Test Arbors

Spindle runout arbors offer a quick and easy way to verify that a machine spindle is running true after a crash, after a machine has been moved, or periodically as a performance check.

HSK Taper Dimensional Spindle Gauges

Units are available for HSK tapers in dial indicator gauges, electronic gauges, and air gauges.

Steep Taper Dimensional Spindle Gauges

Units are available for CAT/DIN/BT tapers in basic contact gauges, dial indicator gauges, as well as air gauges.

Drawbar Stroke Verification

Correct drawbar stroke in the spindle is critical to reliable machine operation.
