Bowers Air Gauging is a fast, user friendly method of providing high precision results in even the most challenging of shop-floor environments. Using air
flow volumes and pressures to measure parts, Air Gauging is a reliable, repeatable technology well suited for applications that demand submicron
precision tolerancing.
Bowers Air Gauging technology is flexible; enabling measurement of not only dimensions, but geometric and relational characteristics, such as squareness, parallelism, ovality, taper and straightness.
The working range of our standard air gauge tooling is 0.08mm. For optimum accuracy, Bowers produce the Setting Masters at the Upper and
Lower product limits.
