Overview
The Fowler Z-Height-E ABS PLUS pairs convenient electronic height measurement with a true absolute measuring system that maintains its reference position, letting the operator begin measuring immediately after power-up.
Absolute Measuring System
Because the ABS system does not lose its origin at power-down, there is no reference-setting step at the start of each session — one of the more common sources of operator setup error on conventional incremental height gages.
Construction and Data Output
The heavy-duty single-column construction provides a stable measuring platform, and the large hand wheel handles both coarse and fine positioning. The unit ships with a NIST-certified test block and a USB data cable, and supports a wireless transmitter — making it a strong fit for quality-control departments that need measurement verification and electronic data capture.
Applications
Routine surface-plate inspection, dimensional measurement and layout where absolute measurement and data collection are wanted.
