Profile Projector
The Profile Projector (Model RS-15), also widely recognized as an optical comparator or shadowgraph, is a high-precision non-contact measurement and inspection instrument. It is designed to project an exact, highly magnified silhouette or surface image of a component onto a fine-ground glass screen.
Key Features
-
High-Precision Optical System: Delivers sharp, distortion-free, bright projected images across selectable magnification options (typically 10x, 20x, to 50x/100x).
-
Rotatable Projection Screen: Fitted with a 360° rotatable protractor screen featuring cross-hairs and vernier scales for precise angular measurements.
-
Dual Illumination Control: Equipped with independent contour illumination (for profile outlines) and surface illumination (for blind holes and surface textures).
-
Sturdy Measuring Stage: Hard-wearing coordinate work stage with smooth X-Y travel capability, supported by precision micrometers or digital readouts (DRO).
-
Non-Contact Inspection: Perfect for checking easily deformable, minute, or sharp-edged workpieces without physical wear or distortion.
