ABSTRACT:
A gage assembly has a frame including a base fastened to a fixture on a table to which workpieces are to be brought for gaging. Digital electronic gages are secured to the frame and have gage-operating plungers extending in the X-axis and Y-axis directions. The plunger axes are coplanar and intersect in the center of a hole in the frame base through which a pneumatically-operated conical ended probe extends. The gage plungers are resiliently biased against a probe ring that is coaxial with the probe cone and is mounted on articulated pivot arms so that the gages are operated in response to random horizontal movement of the probe ring as the probe point enters and centers in a hole whose location in a workpiece is being checked to about a second axis parallel to the first axis.
