creased capabilities including the MPP-310Q scanning probe that collects cloud point data at speeds of up to 120 mm/s. Other probes suited for screw depth measurement, ultra-small diameter measurement and noncontact measurement are also supported. Available software options enable the CMMs to tackle a wide variety of measurement applications. Mitutoyo America Corp. Ph: 630-820-9666 E-mail: info@mitutoyo.com Web: www.mitutoyo.com
Biostable Coolant To maximize efficiency, machine shops require coolants that are capable of working in diverse ap- plications and on a wide variety of metals. The Hocut 795 coolant can be used with all metals, including automotive-grade cast aluminums. Its versatility allows it to be used with bar
machines, lathes, chuckers, centerless and cylindrical grinders, and other ma- chinery. This coolant is compatible with hard water, is low foaming, biostable and clean-running, ensuring long, odor- free sump life and minimizing the cost of sump-side additives. It can be used at ambient temperatures to dramatically reduce energy costs. Coolant’s excel- lent machining capabilities increase tool life and improve the surface finish of manufactured parts. It provides cor- rosion protection without staining, and affords good lubrication for machine ways and indexing mechanisms. Its corrosion-inhibiting technology prevents parts from rusting between operations, thereby reducing scrap rates.

Versatile Gaging Company will showcase its patented new Equator gaging system that cuts
purchase, maintenance and fixture costs, and can be programmed for multiple parts and re-programmed in minutes for design changes. The system is a radical new alternative to traditional dedi- cated gaging, filling a gap not previously addressed. Sys- tem’s low-cost design, unique construction and method of operation enable high- speed comparative gaging for inspection of high-volume
manufactured parts. It has been developed and proven on the shop-floor in collaboration with industry-leading companies in the automotive, aerospace and medical sectors that need a lightweight, fast and highly repeatable gage that operators can use with “push-button” simplicity. Gage can switch between
