  • the present invention relates generally to devices, apparatuses, and methods relating to rotating an article to be dimensionally tested.

  • the existing devices and methods of checking parts for straightness, roundness, squareness and concentricity are known to be inaccurate, unrepeatable and frustrating for many companies around the world. These devices and methods of checking are not accurate or repeatable for high precision applications, where tolerance requirements are within the millionths (or microns).
  • the traditional method of checking round parts uses a V-block and dial test indicator. This method requires the inspector to manually turn each article to be tested while the article rests in the V-block. The problem with this method is that no two people will turn the article exactly the same way, at the same speed, or with the same amount of pressure each time. This results in inconsistent readings for the same article even with the same inspector, and certainly, among various individuals. In addition, longer or heavier parts must be held in place by hand or by a clamping device, which can result in incorrect readings due to uneven pressures and flexing (or bending) of the article.
  • the present invention seeks to provide devices, apparatuses, and methods for improving the way in which an article is rotated for dimensional testing with the advantage(s) of being more accurate, having a higher degree of repeatability, being easier to use or perform, and/or being faster to use or perform.
