Ball Measurement

Measuring and grading balls used to be a very tiring and time consuming task. The closer a group of balls are in size to each other, the better the "grade" or rank, and usually the better the final performance of where that group may be used. But to get the balls graded meant hours behind a tiny dial, with cramping fingers on tweezers, and blurry eyes after time. So we needed to find an easy, and fast way to improve this labor intense process.

Edmunds engineers devised a two-position arm that allows for loading of balls by hand, rather than tweezers, away from the measurement contact, that can quickly allow for exiting the ball after measurement. With a vee block locator within the arm, the ball now stops in measurement position with ease and speed. The Accusetter II column amplifier provides an easy 10" bar graph for instant size determination, or the user can read absolute values or a rank size from 1 to 10 in the digital display.
