The ThreadChecker from Kaman Inc is a new non-contact sensor range designed to check both internal and external thread presence for critical parts manufacture and automated assembly line applications. Available in the UK from Ixthus Instrumentation, the range consists of a choice of IP67 rated eddy current probes and an electronics module with both output and visual indication for Go-NoGo distance, set between the probe and the thread.

Four internal probes measure threaded holes to 14mm diameter; two external probes are for threaded shafts to 10mm diameter. Available to suit most metal materials, probes operate to 70°C. As Kaman's eddy current technology does not require a high level of part cleanliness, operation in dirty environments is said to be guaranteed. Stand T73
