VGAGE introduces the new, universally compatible VE-805 Gage Computer, a compact and versatile PC-based tool that delivers high levels of precision, flexibility and cost sensitive process control, as well as WIFI and wireless capability using Bluetooth wireless technology. The VE-805 microprocessor unit provides capabilities ties for gage monitoring and display, raw data collection and storage, measurement analysis, statistical control computations and charting, plus outputting data to external information sharing devices. The new computer works with a variety of measurement mechanisms, including most digital probes, air gages, and inspection equipment with capacity to convert results to an electrical signal, and with the capacity for operation with one up to 31 multiple input devices.
The VE-805 displays gage measurements in real time with a high-resolution color LCD screen, featuring a graphical digital picture, a bitmap illustration or CAD-file representation of the current part being inspected. The displayed data can be presented as both a graphic image and tabled columns with digital values. The computer employs Windows XP Tablet as its basic operating system, plus incorporates VGAGE Pro 7 Software suite for measurement and statistics. VGAGE Pro 7 software can also be upgraded with QDAS statistical packages.
Display setting preferences include resolutions to 0.0000001 in. for use with ultra- precise inspection tools, and the unit provides various security stages for restricting levels of access to certain control functions by operators, supervisors, and management.
The VE-805 features a TFT active matrix color display with touch screen interface. For data storage, the unit includes a 40+ GIG hard drive, 2 USB ports and Ethernet capability for connectivity to auxiliary output devices. The VE-805 also has the option of an external battery source using a Lithium Ion battery.
