Watch: How does a Q-Span® Gauging System help your quality team?

Use a Q-Span Workstation Kit to pick, measure and place your small parts with up to three precision gripper/caliper tools on one collaborative robot. Additional gauges can be incorporated as needed.

Can we help?

If you’re manually measuring small parts with digital calipers and other manual gauges – we can probably help. Let us know what you’re trying to measure, and we’ll do a FREE assessment of your part.
