Embedded Products...

• BadgerWare designed the VIC-Torr Mass Flow, Pressure/Vacuum Decay System for VIC Leak Detection^®.

The VIC-Torr is a high resolution test instrument that can be configured as a mass flow, pressure decay or vacuum decay leak tester and is available in single or multi-channel models. The robust high resolution color LCD touch screen provides all the needed information about the test part including, but not limited to rejection rate, leak rate and test time.
 

• BadgerWare designed and manufactures the DataPro 3000 processor exclusively for Beta LaserMike.

The DataPro 3000 interfaces to any of Beta LaserMike's laser gauges, Ultrascan DSP, Graviscan DSP, or Centerscan providing tolerance checking, SPC data collection, report generation, and closed loop process control. It does all of this and more in either English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, or Korean.
 

• BadgerWare designed and manufactures the ThreadMaster exclusively for Noble Tool.

The Noble ThreadMaster calculates external thread pitch diameter using the industry standard 3-wire method at the touch of a button. The Noble ThreadMaster cuts inspection time in half.
 

• BadgerWare designed the Model 310 and Model 410 handheld thermometers for Instrulab.

The Model 310 and Model 410 were designed for use on the plant floor or anywhere highly accurate temperature measurement is necessary and inconvenient to use line power. The Model 410 uses a platinum RTD sensor, has accuracy up to ±0.025ºC, resolution to 0.001°C, and reads in both °C and °F. The Model 310 uses a thermistor, has accuracy to ±0.01ºC, resolution to 0.001°C, and reads in both °C and °F.

PC Based Stand Alone Piece Part Inspection Systems...

• The BenchMike – Neutral Measurement System was a specialized system designed to measure the diameter and compute the circular mill area (CMA) of wires (a.k.a. neutrals). The system consisted of a Beta LaserMike Model 283 BenchMike, a v-block or auto-rotating fixture, a PC, a printer, an optional Metrologic MS9520 Voyager bar code scanner, and custom PC software.

At the completion of a test, results could be printed or saved to a comma separated text file.
 

• The DataWorks Tape Measurement System was a specialized system designed to measure tape samples. The system consisted of a Beta LaserMike IntelliPak processor, a Beta LaserMike single axis laser gauge, a fixture to hold the tape samples, a PC, an optional footswitch, an optional inkjet or LaserJet printer, and custom PC software.

The DataWorks software provided multiple part recipes, tolerance checking, statistics, printed reports, and saved data directly to Microsoft Access.
 

• The Honeycomb Viewer software interfaced to a DVT Machine Vision camera to display live images of a jet engine part. The images were viewed real time by an operator to be inspected for imperfections.

Images and operator entered data could be printed on an HP 4x6" photo printer.

 

PC Based Continuous Measurement Inspection Systems...

• The PelletScan System was a specialized system designed to measure the average diameter and compute the taper of nuclear fuel pellets after they have exited a centerless grinder. The system consisted of a Beta LaserMike IntelliPak processor, a Beta LaserMike laser gauge, a PC, a USB I/O Module, and custom PC software.

The PelletScan software provided multiple part recipes, tolerance checking, statistics, trend charting, and saved data to a comma separated Excel file. Pellets with diameter or taper values outside the specification limits would cause a relay on the USB I/O module to be triggered in order to route the bad pellets to a reject bin.
 

• The GasketCheck software was a specialized system designed to measure rubber Inkjet cartridge gaskets after they were fed onto a conveyor belt from a bowl feeder. The system consisted of a DVT Machine Vision camera, a laser triangulation gage, an Ethernet I/O module, a PC, and custom PC software.

The GasketCheck software, via the Ethernet I/O module, controlled all aspects of the line (i.e. feeding of the parts, power to the conveyer belt, status alarm lights, and good and bad part blow off). Forty-three dimensional features were measured. All data for each part was saved to an Excel file.
 

PC Based Calibration Software...

• The EZcal RTD Calibration System was a complete calibration system that duplicated and automated the way an experienced technician calibrates RTD sensors, but without the time consuming manual data entry and calculations. EZcal RTD reduced calibration time by 50%. The EZcal Calibration System consisted of an Instrulab Model 4312A System Thermometer, a reference RTD sensor, a stable temperature source (including optional Techne Dri-block calibrator), a PC, printer, and EZcal RTD software.

EZcal RTD could calibrate up to 11 sensors at a time, store information for up to 10 different reference sensors, store information for up to 220 uncalibrated sensors, store of up to 10 different calibration procedures, provide a complete calibration report for each sensor including RTD coefficients and an R vs. T table, and store calibration data to a data file.
 

• The Cable Length Calibration software interfaced to a Durant counter and displayed live cable length values. A length of cable was measured three times and then a Calibration Report was displayed and then saved to a data file.

PLC Based Industrial Control Systems...

• BadgerWare provided PLC software, PC software to interface to the PLC, and built two control panels to print for a wing tank pressure control/relief system for a new commercial airliner being designed.
