V-Block inspection bench – SABANECV

The V-Block inspection bench is an instrument designed for the dimensional and geometrical inspection of shafts and cylindrical components, particularly useful when components without centre holes must be checked in a practical, stable and repeatable way. The configuration with two V-block supports allows the component to rest directly on the V-blocks, making the bench suitable for typical workshop, testing and quality control inspections.

The bench is equipped with two V-block supports with carbide contacts, a solution that ensures stable support of the component and good wear resistance even under intensive use. This aspect is important during repetitive inspections, because the quality of the support reference directly affects the consistency and reliability of measurement over time.

The dial gauge holder is adjustable and allows the indicator to be positioned correctly according to the inspection point. This simplifies inspection operations both in workshops and metrology laboratories. The dial gauge is supplied as standard, therefore the bench is immediately ready for basic inspection work without requiring additional essential components.

This type of bench is particularly suitable for inspections on ground shafts, turned components, pins and other cylindrical parts that need to be checked while externally supported on the V-blocks. In these applications it allows straightness and cylindricity inspections, making it a very practical solution whenever the component must be checked quickly but with a stable and repeatable reference.

The structure of the bench is designed to provide solidity and operational consistency during daily inspections. For this reason it represents a professional solution for quality control in mechanical and industrial environments, especially where cylindrical components must be checked regularly and a consistent inspection method between operators is required.

Applications

• Inspection of ground shafts and cylindrical components without centre holes
• Straightness and cylindricity inspection
• Geometrical inspection of turned components and pins
• Quality control in workshops, production and metrology laboratories

FAQ – V-Block Inspection Bench

What is a V-Block inspection bench used for?
It is used to inspect shafts and cylindrical components externally supported on V-blocks, especially for geometrical inspections on components without centre holes.

When should a V-Block inspection bench be preferred?
It is recommended when the component is not inspected between centres and a practical solution for external surface inspection is required.

What is the advantage of V-block supports when checking cylindrical parts?
They allow the component to rest in a stable and repeatable way, creating a reliable reference for common geometrical inspections.

Why are carbide contacts important?
Because they improve wear resistance on the support points, which is particularly useful during frequent and repetitive inspections.

Which inspections are most commonly performed with this bench?
Mainly straightness and cylindricity inspections on shafts, pins and cylindrical parts.

Is the dial gauge included?
Yes, the bench is supplied with a dial gauge as standard, so it is ready for basic inspection operations.

Is the dial gauge holder adjustable?
Yes, the adjustable holder allows the indicator to be positioned according to the required inspection point.

Which components is it particularly suitable for?
It is especially suitable for ground shafts, turned components, pins and other cylindrical parts inspected while externally supported.

Can it also be useful for repetitive production inspections?
Yes, because it offers a stable and practical configuration suitable for frequent inspection of production batches.

In which departments is it most commonly used?
It is widely used in machine shops, quality control departments, production areas and metrology laboratories.

Why choose a V-Block inspection bench?
Because it provides a robust and professional solution for geometrical inspections on cylindrical components using a simple and repeatable method.
