What is a measuring bench

A measuring bench is a precision instrument used in workshops and quality control rooms to measure mechanical parts, preset measuring equipment, and calibrate gauges. Essential in manufacturing, engineering, and metrology, these benches ensure components meet strict quality standards.

Measuring Bench applications

Measuring benches are used in various applications, including:

Quality Control: In manufacturing and production, these benches ensure components meet specified tolerances and standards. They are used for checking the accuracy of machined parts, gauges, and measuring equipment.

Metrology: In calibration laboratories, horizontal measuring benches are used for certifying and calibrating various measuring instruments and gauges.

Precision Manufacturing: These benches are crucial for measuring and inspecting high-precision parts in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics.

Choosing the Right Measuring Bench

When selecting a measuring bench, consider the following factors:

Precision and Accuracy: Choose a bench that offers the required precision for your specific applications. Some models provide accuracy up to 1.5 µm.

Measuring Range: Ensure the bench has a sufficient measuring range for your needs. Trimos offers models with ranges from 100 mm up to 12,000 mm.

Ease of Use: Look for benches with user-friendly designs and easy manipulation, especially if multiple operators will use the equipment.

Modularity: Some benches offer modular designs, allowing for different measuring systems and displays to suit various requirements.

Durability : Choose a height-measuring device made from high-quality materials to ensure durability and longevity, especially when used in harsh industrial environments.
