The PG1000 optical cutting tool inspection system to be demonstrated at Amerimold 2021 by PG Inspection Tools ensures that the cutting tools used to manufacture molds or any other parts are within the manufacturer's specifications. The PG1000-200 and PG1000-400 models, specifically, are durable and easy-to-use systems that allow the user to take tool geometry measurements down to the micron level. Most measurements take less than 30 seconds.
According to PG Inspection Tools, little training is necessary to operate the PG1000 and the included REACTION software. The company recently released version 9 of the software, which features a simplified user interface and the addition of new calculation instructions, demonstration videos and a manual. A new reporting feature is said to enable users to easily create fully customized PDF reports, which contributes to more efficient moldmaking. The user experience and the stability of the software are also improved in this latest version.
