Replace old Comtors
Replace old Comtors
(OP)
I am an entry level manufacturing engineer and have not been in industry long enough to know all my options for measuring tools. Right now we have a range of these from .4375-4.125 over 50 gages. If you dont know a what a comtor is check picture... They are basicly a plug that expands that hooks up to an amplifier that tells you how far out your bore is. I would like to replace them with less tools. Our company manufactures drilling rigs and currently we make about 3-4 rigs a month so we are not high production. What kind of tool would be simular to the comtors yet bring my company into the 21st century? Is there a better tool for the job of measuring honed holes?Any ideas, questions, comments, concerns?

A Google search for "bore gage" will show you that the technology for measuring the diameter of a hole hasn't changed much, other than you might get a digital read out instead of a dial.
