Product catalog summary
Overview
The LABMASTER® Universal Measuring System by Pratt & Whitney is a laser-based measurement tool designed for high accuracy and reproducibility. It uses a digital interferometer to measure dimensions by comparing probe positions to a laser light wavelength, minimizing errors such as Abbe error.

Key Features
  • Mechanical and Thermal Stability: Constructed with a cast iron base and thermally stable materials.
  • Modular Construction: USB technology and PC integration for easy serviceability.
  • Digital Laser Interferometer: Provides high resolution and traceability with zero Abbe offset.
  • Two Point Calibration: Quick calibration using NIST traceable gage blocks.
  • PC Control with GageCal™ Software: Windows-based software for data collection and error reduction.
  • Bi-Directional Probes: Patented design eliminates setup changes.
  • Air-Bearing Slides: Reduces friction and wear.
  • Wide Direct-Reading Range: Minimizes setup time.
  • Automatic Cycling: Programmable measurement cycles.
  • Statistical Measurement: Stores measurement data and computes statistics.

Applications
The system is versatile, suitable for measuring gage blocks, plugs, pins, rings, calipers, and other precision components.

GageCal™ Software
GageCal™ enhances productivity with a user-friendly interface, smart spreadsheets, and compatibility with other Windows programs. It supports gage management, tracking calibration data, and generating detailed reports.

Specifications
  • Instrument Uncertainty: 1.2 + 0.5L microinches (±2 std. dev.)
  • Repeatability: 1.6 microinches (±2 std. dev.)
  • Resolution: 0.1 microinch
  • Measurement Range: Internal: 0.02" to 14"; External: 0 to 13"
  • Electrical Requirements: 110/120 V or 220/240 V
  • Pneumatic Requirements: 1.5 SCFM at 50 psi

Service and Warranty
The system is designed for easy serviceability with a modular design. It comes with a one-year warranty and is supported by factory-trained personnel.

Compliance
The product complies with U.S. Export Control Laws, and users should verify restrictions based on the product and destination.
