Like the TMS family of products, the measurements taken by the DMS series are not affected by surface variations such as color, texture and reflectivity, electronic or mechanical noise, humidity, lighting, water vapor, dust, or temperature. The DMS products are non-contact, air-coupled ultrasonic distance measurement systems designed for use in industrial environments. The DMS product family can measure to a distance of 23.9999 inches from the material surface.
Any surface, liquid or solid, can be measured, on line, to an accuracy of better than one-thousandth of an inch. Applications include inspecting piston engines for missing connecting rod bearing inserts, measuring the piston deck height in diesel engines, precision fill level, depth of a blind hole, flatness, bottle cap security, etc. A new product has been introduced, the distance MINIGAGE. The MINIGAGE has the same specifications as the DMS-5000 but is much smaller and less than ½ of the price of the DMS-5000. As with all UAI dimensional measurement products, the MINIGAGE is completely self calibrating for factors affecting the accuracy of the measurement.
