Laser Makes Run-Out Measuring a Snap

Machine shops use precision motion systems like X-Y tables, often needing to confirm if stages run straight. Using the Laser Microgage, Pinpoint measured a CNC X-axis table for run-out over 70 inches, detecting minor vertical shifts and slight end-range errors due to wear. This tool allows users to quickly measure alignment to a precision of 0.00005 inch, supporting machine setup and performance monitoring.
