ThreadChecker<\/a><\/strong> is for use in any automated inspection process in the fastener industry. Consisting of a single electronics module compatible with any probe\/material combination, the ThreadChecker can check threads regardless of part cleanliness, reducing the cost of implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe ThreadChecker is designed specifically for in-die use. It features four internal probes, ranging from 4 to 10 millimetres (mm) and two external probes, 6mm and 8mm. Available with a DIN rail mounting option, ThreadChecker is CE-compliant and features IP-67-rated probes and electronics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ThreadChecker is available with both switched and analog outputs. With the switched output option, the sensor is wired to a PLC or other controller, programmed to alarm when no thread is detected. As an alternative, users can monitor the analog voltage and program the PLC or other control device with limits suitable for the application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
