Articles & News Our decades of knowledge for you AboutArticles & News Back to Previous Industry Focus News Technical Articles View All Technical Article Eliminate Blind Spots in Shaft Inspection with 3D Mapping Modern precision manufacturing has entered an era where micron‑level tolerances are no longer exceptional but expected. As rotary components grow more complex, conventional inspection methods struggle to reveal true geometric behavior, driving the need for higher‑density measurement and advanced analytical tools to ensure quality, stability, and performance. Industry Focus Supporting the AI Economy: The Role of Precision Metrology for Large Power Generation Engines Artificial intelligence is one of the largest drivers of global electricity demand. Manufacturers of large crankshafts and camshafts face a distinct challenge: achieving micron level precision on components that can weigh more than a car. Meeting this standard requires not only advanced measurement technology but automated gages specifically engineered for large rotating parts. Industry Focus Precision Gaging for New Energy Vehicle Motors Whether you manufacture components for battery-electric, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid vehicles, Adcole delivers automated gaging solutions engineered for high-performance production environments. News Adcole Launches New Website – Your Destination for Shaft Metrology Excellence Adcole, the global leader in precision shaft metrology for over 50 years, is thrilled to announce the launch of its redesigned website, ready to deliver a more engaging experience for engineers and manufacturers who demand accuracy. Technical Article The Relationship Between Chatter and Lobing The two terms overlap and are often used interchangeably, although neither is clearly defined by standards or practices. Here, we will look at the methods used to calculate these parameters on your Adcole meter. Technical Article How to Determine if There is a Chatter Problem in a Grinding Process This article will explore the reasons for chatter in shaft components, evaluation methods, and output of measurements to improve shaft quality in high-demand assemblies. Technical Article Linear Profile Measurement Software: Linear Convexity, Concavity and Barreling Measurements Adcole understands how important linear profile measurements are for advanced manufacturers producing precision components and offers a utility that enables engineers to obtain linear measurements in an easily understood format. Technical Article Material Build-Up & Advanced Straightness Software It’s not uncommon for manufacturers to puzzle over why their crankshaft journals are showing material build-up on the leading or trailing edges of a component. As this is a very specific manufacturing issue, obtaining good data about the problem can be an exercise in frustration. Technical Article Real Time Chatter Analysis – Sliding Window Software This software solution enables engineers to detect chatter that occurs in only a small angular window of the journal or lobe surface (burst chatter), without diluting the amplitude by analyzing over a larger angular window or over the entire 360⁰.
