This example shows how to measure the flatness of camshaft from shaft center using linear gauge sensors. The DG-2310 calculates the measured values of maximum-minimum in order to obtain its flatness by moving the shaft back and forth.

When transverse force is applied to linear gauge sensor, we recommend an indirect measurement, using jig etc. The indirect measurement prevents from excessive load on sensor. However, please take notice that sensor might cause less accuracy with an indirect measurement.
