Sunnen Products Co. has introduced its advanced PGE-6000 bore gaging system, engineered to provide high-precision, efficiency, and adaptability in dimensional measurement. Designed with the needs of modern manufacturing environments in mind, the PGE-6000 is ideal for applications requiring extremely accurate internal diameter (ID) measurement, even in challenging or hard-to-reach locations.
At the core of the system is an electronically amplified comparative gage that supports measurement in both inches and millimeters, ensuring compatibility across global machining standards. The system offers selectable resolutions of 0.01, 0.001, and 0.0001 mm (or 0.0001, 0.00001, and 0.000001 inches), and delivers outstanding repeatability of ±0.00025 mm (±0.000010″), making it suitable for both precision production environments and inspection labs.
The standard measuring range of the PGE-6000 spans 9.40 mm to 38.10 mm (0.370″–1.500″), which can be extended up to 74.30 mm (3.000″) with the use of optional PG-250E extension fingers. Quick calibration and an intuitive, menu-driven interface help reduce setup time and make the system accessible to both experienced technicians and new operators.
For enhanced usability, the gage features a clear graphical and numerical display along with programmable visual limit indicators, supporting easy go/no-go decisions. The interface allows for operator-defined defaults, batch or serial number tracking, and single or multi-point measurement modes, which streamline data collection and ensure traceability. Data can be stored internally or exported via USB flash drive or PC cable, and the system integrates easily with SPC software for advanced analysis, offering statistical insights such as averages, medians, standard deviation, and range.
The PGE-6000’s floating reed system eliminates friction and wear, ensuring long-term reliability and repeatable performance. Its rugged, portable design is powered by an external power supply, allowing easy use across various workstations. The system is compatible with PG-400/PG-500 setting fixtures and standard ring gages for precise diameter settings. Its reversible base supports different finger sizes, expanding the system’s versatility further.
Beyond simple diameter measurement, the gage also detects form variations such as taper, barrel, and bell mouth, and performs effectively even near ports, lands, and at the bottom of blind holes. Built for daily use in demanding shop environments, the PGE-6000 offers a complete solution for achieving consistent, operator-independent results with minimal training.
With its robust features, precision accuracy, and flexibility, the Sunnen PGE-6000 sets a new standard in bore measurement technology, enabling manufacturers to optimize quality control and reduce inspection errors across a wide range of industrial applications.
