    CHAPTER Introduction Introduction This manual contains detailed information about the NDC Technologies BenchMike Pro Benchtop Laser Microme- ters. This includes the following two models: • BenchMike Pro Model 2025 • BenchMike Pro Model 2050 BenchMike Pro Options The Model 2025 BenchMike Pro covers the measurement range 0.003-1.00 inch, and the Model 2050 BenchMike Pro covers the measurement range 0.010-2.00 in.
  • Page 16: Measurement Fixtures

    In order to ensure the measurement accuracy shown in the Specifications, it is recommended that you have your BenchMike Pro calibrated by NDC Technologies once per year. While at the factory, NDC Technologies can also perform any required retrofits, repairs, or upgrades.
  • Page 17: Using The Benchmike Pro

    Using the BenchMike Pro To turn on the BenchMike Pro, push the power button on the rear of the unit. It will take about one minute for the unit to initialize. To turn off the BenchMike Pro, push the power button for one second. The BenchMike Pro will begin the power-down cycle.
  • Page 18: Sources Of Error

    The measurement area surrounds the Pass Line of the gauge and covers of the full measurement range of the unit (1.0 in. for the Model 2025 and 2.0 in. for the Model 2050). The Pass Line of the gauge is located halfway between the transmitter and the receiver.
  • Page 19: Measuring Transparent Products

    1.5.2 Measuring Transparent Products Transparent product The BenchMike Pro can measure transparent products when a Transparent Object Measurement type (Types 51, 52, and 53) is selected. See section in Setup about Measurement Types for more information. Although an opaque product blocks laser light across its en- tire diameter, a transparent product allows some laser light to pass through.
  • Page 20: Data Processing And Display

    Data Processing and Display The BenchMike Pro allows you great flexibility in controlling the way data is displayed and processed. As de- scribed in the Advanced Capabilities section, there are several parameters which can be used to control the aver- aging of measurements, the number of digits displayed on the screen, the format of printed reports, etc.
  • Page 21: Laser Safety

    Warning Information The BenchMike Pro is equipped with a warning label as a reminder that a laser is present during operation. If a problem occurs with the operation of the BenchMike Pro, contact NDC Technologies Customer Service im- mediately. Only trained NDC Technologies service personnel should perform service operations on this product. The use of controls or adjustments or the performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
  • Page 23: Installation

    CHAPTER Installation Instructions 2.1.1 Power To power the BenchMike Pro, use the supplied, detachable mains supply cord. Using an under-rated or not- certified power cord is a safety hazard. Only power cords with the appropriate ratings for the country of use and with a rating of 5 amps or greater should be used.
  • Page 24: Caution Symbol

    This product should only be used or serviced by trained NDC Technologies personnel. Failure to do so could result in physical injury, damage to the product, and/or voiding of the warranty. If you have any questions or problems, please contact the NDC Technolo- gies Customer Service Department.

  • Page 79: Reports

    Reports The key difference between Batch and Sample Reports is that Sample Reports can only be printed one time per sample, while Batch Reports can be printed multiple times by pressing the Print key. Sample and Batch Reports contain data from a single part measurement. If Continuous measurements are selected for Sample and Batch Reports (under the Measurement Setup Type tab), measurements will be taken until the Print key is touched or until the Reading Count equals the Batch Count value.
  • Page 80: Sample Report

    4.9.1 Sample Report The Sample Report is designed for use when taking a single measurement of multiple parts. NOTE: A maximum of 31 characters is permitted in the Title (shown as “Your Information Here”) line. NOTE: The headers are optional and can be turned on and off on the Report Setup/Output page. NOTE: This report is printed for each Feature that has been inserted in the library, causing the Feature number to be added to the report header.

  • Page 88: Feature Functions

    4.10 Feature Functions Features are similar to libraries, in that settings can be saved and stored for repeated use. However, features are different from libraries in that they permit you to develop more complex setups for your applications. Features allow you to link data between one another, unlike libraries, which function inde- pendently.

    4.11.7 Nominal/Limits/Tolerance Set- These two pages for Nominal/Limits/Tolerances Setup allow you to indicate acceptable deviation of the actual product from the desired product size. When these limits are exceeded, all the following are triggered: audible alarm, alarm digital output, and alarm indication on Main Measurement page. NOTE: Upper or Lower Warning and Reject Limits can be se- lected to be displayed on the main measurement screen.
