Flex Arm adds a new dimension of flexibility – in virtually every direction - with its 19” vertical post. Designed for mounting microscopes, vision systems, etc., is flexible, sturdy and stable. Allows vertical movement along the post (z-axis) as well as Theta (rotational), in addition to other lockable/positionable axes of movement.

Two versions available, equipped with a standard table clamp or a weighted base. Both are bench friendly, and do not require users to keep the horizontal arm at table height. Lower arm can be placed as high as 19” off the table, allowing users to work around existing bench top products or structures. The second (upper) adjustable arm can pivot and be adjusted at any number of angles for flexibility and clearance of benchtop objects.

Legex 322 is a high accuracy CNC coordinate measuring machine that loads enhanced performance into a compact design.

With a unified, one-piece configuration and minimal footprint, designed for quick and easy setup and operation – offering new opportunities to integrate automated measurement and inspection.

Designed for measurement and inspection of components sized to300 x 200 x 200 mm, combines accuracy (MPE_E = [0.8+2L/1000]µm) with speed (200 mm/sec.). Applications include measurement of precision metal molds and electrical discharge machining parts as well as off-line setup of machine tools. 

Minimizes deformations caused by normal machine operations. Integrated y-axis machine guide rail is ceramic-plasma coated. Thermally-stable components plus real- time temperature compensation maintain accuracy even under extreme conditions.

Supports probes including contacting, scanning and touch-trigger probes, as well as laser and vision probes.

Model 2200-806 High Volume Heated Tip-Seal Material Dispense Valve delivers low to high viscosity heated materials at a high flow rate. The 3/4” diameter orifice dispenses large volumes at a slow velocity for proper fill rates. Zero-cavity nozzle design eliminates dripping after shut-off.

The material chamber has 120v heaters and sensor to control temperatures up to 350°F. Separate heater and sensor prevent cold material starts due to loss of temperature. Standard model includes two operator handles and an electric trigger switch to control the start-stop flow of heated material. An ambient valve model is also available.

Carbide and wear resistant components and high-temperature seals are designed to handle heated materials with abrasive fillers for long production life. Allows multiple Tip-Seal valves to be ganged together. Applications include filling lighting ballasts, packaging fluid materials, roller coating filling and large potting or coating operations.
