IN-LINE GAGES In-Line Gages historically have been the trademark of VGAGE. Working with machine builders to provide the best solution for part inspection and in some cases tool feedback/compensation. Measurement with contact probes or non-contact air can be provided depending on the customer's needs.
AUTO/SEMI AUTO GAGES VGAGE is a premier designer and builder of automatic gage machines. Many of these machines are in line and check features of high volume parts. Other systems are gantry or robot loaded to provide a complete automated solution for inspection. These systems are also capable of providing feedback to the machine to provide a closed loop process thus enhancing the productivity of the system.
GAGE STATIONS/BENCHES VGAGE has been providing customers with complete gaging solutions. Part of this, is the ability to store the hand gages and fixture gages on a bench or stand. The benches supplied include custom designed storage to provide specific tagged positions for each gage. Training aids can also be placed on the back of the bench to provide the operators with clear procedures on the inspection process of parts.
STAND ALONE FIXTURE GAGES Larger parts require stand alone fixture gages. Unlike CMM's these gages are usually located near the machining process and provide quick feedback to the operator to let him know that the tooling is set up properly. VGAGE can provide custom design and build of these types of gages for all types of parts.
FIXTURE/BENCH GAGES The Spherical Case Gage is a simple yet effective electronic fixture gage to check the size, profile, and location of the spherical diameter inside the case. The part is manually loaded over a gage spindle and into a set of V nests to locate the part. The hub diameters are also measured to electronically establish the true centerline of the part. A tapered pin is placed in one of the cross pinholes to locate and orient the part. The operator then actuates a manual valve to advance the internal gage probes. By taking readings in four coordinates the results are calculated and displayed on a gaging computer.
AIR SPINDLES/RINGS VGAGE designs and builds custom air spindles and rings. Measuring with air is a non-contact type of measurement that is very accurate and repeatable. There are no moving parts to stick or fail. Our air spindles/rings repeat to sub micron levels when used in conjunction with our air converter and instrumentation. When you want accuracy on your shop floor and your parts have tight tolerances, nothing beats our air spindles/rings. Contact us to advise you on the best style for your application
HAND GAGES VGAGE is your total source for design and build of custom and standard hand gages. All of the gages are manufactured to the highest standards. Every gage is checked in our inspection lab to assure our customers that they are receiving the highest quality product.
VGAGE has a long history of providing unique and exclusive instrumentation and software solutions that accept a wide variety of inputs and that can directly control tool compensators as well as provide feedback to transfer and CNC machines. Data collection, networking, SPC and machine control are just a few of the features of our extensive lineup of computer and software solutions.

VGAGE produces some of the best tool compensators in the industry. We were pioneers in the field and continue to develop product for state-of-the-art tool control. Our servo-controlled compensators complemented with our gages and tooling can provide control systems to significantly increase production of quality parts. VGAGE offers several systems for tool compensation. Transfer lines, pallet systems and even CNC packages are available. VGAGE also specializes in retro fitting existing equipment that was not purchased with a tool compensation ir outfitted with a compeditors tool control system. In fact VGAGE has replaced over 100 competitor systems around the world. Whether you are generating a feature or finishing a bore, VGAGE has a solution for you. If we do not have a standard compensator that will fit your application we will design a customer compensator to meet your requirement. Standard models include: 401-500 Original servo controlled, replaced by 401-600, fully supported. 401-600 Heavy duty servo controlled available in both wet or dry models. 401-700 New smaller servo controlled available in both wet or dry models. 401-800 Foot Mounted available for dry application only. 401-600
401-700 SPINDLE VGAGE has the ideal CNC interface for small to large operations. Our tool compensation products interface with almost all CNC controllers to provide manual or automatic tool offsets. They can also be connected serially with gages to compensate based on trends for closed loop machine control. Our units are excellent for machines or cells where guarding or fencing limits access to the CNC control. Our setup and program parameters are easily inputted from keypad or with a PC program .

Valve Seat Gage The hand held motorized valve seat gage allows ease of use with very accurate results that are not influenced by the operator. When the unit is placed into the part a cycle will automatically start. The motor driven head rotates and provides a total indicated reading of the roundness of the seat and the runout of the seat to the valve guide. The readings are taken from two very small transducers integrated into the read head. If you need an accurate and economical solution to inspect valves seats, VGAGE has the solution for you.

At VGAGE we stock hundreds of probes ready for quick shipment to new and existing customers. We know how important it is to keep your gaging equipment up and running and this is why we keep so many analog and digital probes in house.
At VGAGE we stock many of the most common probe and indicator tips used in our gages. We also make and alter tips as required for special application. So whether it is a carbide, chrome, ruby or diamond contact we are your quality source. 
The updated VE-101/111 is a programmable micro-processor based multi input column that accepts LVDT and air inputs. Featuring intuitive displays, electronic zero and gain, analog zero / gain / balance, TIR, BCD and Serial output, and relay output, the VE-101/111 provides the ultimate in shop floor flexibility. 
VGAGE is proud to introduce the new VE-03 Air to Electronic Converter. When gaging requirements dictate the use of a non-contact air probe, the results may be displayed on an electronic column or gage amplifier through the use of the VE-03 Air to Electronic Converter. The VE-03 is very compact and designed to mount as a free-standing unit to a standard DIN rail. The unit is completely sealed making it impervious to coolant, dust and any other impurities which may otherwise compromise the gaging function. VGAGE offers the VE-03 as part of our complete line of products designed to provide gaging solutions for close-tolerance, high–production inspection. 
The new VE-70 air saver can easily pay for itself in a short time. Measurement with air is still a very stable and accurate way to inspect parts. Instead of having the air supply on continuously, the air saver can control when and how long the air will remain on. It will automatically time out and shut off the air when the gage is not being used. 
The new VGAGE VE-18 Digital Micrometer has been designed to calibrate probes, dial, and digital indicators to satisfy measurement system analysis requirements. Whether it's to set the correct gain on a transducer or verifying the linearity, the VE-18 will satisfy these needs. 
VGAGE now has a line of standard gear checking gages. The gages are adjustable to accept different diameter and length gears. Contact us if you have a need for a flexible gage to check and inspect the critical features on your gears.
