Product catalog summary
Introduction
High-end bicycle manufacturers face significant challenges in producing components that meet tight tolerances and extreme performance standards. These components often have small, awkward, and difficult-to-measure dimensions, which complicates the manufacturing process.
The Challenge
The primary challenge is to accurately measure critical dimensions of bicycle components that are small and awkwardly shaped, making standard contact sensors inadequate.
The Solution
Solartron Metrology provides specialized probes designed to address these challenges. These probes are tailored to measure the unique shapes and dimensions of bicycle components effectively.
Key Features of Solartron Probes
  • High Resolution: Solartron LVDTs offer a resolution of up to 0.01 micron, ideal for checking flatness and height build.
  • Compact Design: DZ and Digital Short probes are up to 50% shorter than comparable LVDTs, suitable for tight spaces.
  • Skinny Probes: Available in 6mm and 3mm diameters for measuring multiple points in confined areas.
  • Specialized Mini Probes: Mini Probes and Mini Single Leaf Flexures fit into bores and tight gaps inaccessible to other sensors.
  • Customization: Options for special length cables or tips to meet specific measurement needs.
  • Digital Option: The Digital Orbit® network provides calibrated sensors for synchronized readings into a PC or PLC.
Applications
  • 6mm probes and mini probes are used for checking the ends of bicycle forks.
  • Gauging probes assess the flatness of gears.
  • DUSM probes measure gaps in wheels.
Orbit® – The Total Measurement System
The Solartron Orbit® Digital Measurement System offers a comprehensive set of measurement solutions with various interfaces for computers and PLCs. It includes features such as bore gauging, block gauges, flexures, wireless capabilities, and multi-channel wireless gauges.

Gauging Probes / Check bicycle components-1

Specialized Probes Application Story Check bicycle components The Challenge High end bicycle manufacturers have complex challenges. Their must manufacture components that have tight tolerances and extreme performance standards to justify a high selling price. Even worse, critical dimensions might be small, awkward, and difficult to measure with standard contact sensors. The Solution Solartron Metrology offers specialized probes that are short, skinny, and built to check the awkward shapes a bicycle might have:.  High Resolution: Solartron LVDTs offer resolution up to 0.01 micron, which is excellent for checking flatness and height build.  Short: Solartron offers DZ and Digital Short probes that are up to 50% shorter than comparable LVDT’s. These are great for tight spaces.  Skinny: Solartron offers both 6mm diameter and 3mm diameter probes for areas where several points need to be measured.  Specialized Mini Probes: Solartron Mini Probes and Mini Single Leaf Flexures can fit into bores and tight gaps that other sensors cannot.  Customization: Elements such as special length cables or tips can be added.  Digital Option: In addition, Solartron’s Digital Orbit® network offers a calibrated sensor, and enables multiple, synchronized readings into a PC or PLC Gauging probes checking flatness of a gear Checking distance between gears DUSM probes checking gap in wheel 6mm probes and mini probes checking end o
