Our Customers Say

"We actually used it (Cylindrical Laser) for aligning the Power Rollers the turbine rotor sits on during inspections and testing. It went extremely well. Didn’t suffer the delays we encountered last year when the turbine rotor shouldered up on the power roller (cost us about 20 hours). It has already paid for itself. Thanks for your help."

"We purchased the Microgage 2000 and the Lateral Pitch Plate for measuring flatness, parallelism, and other applications. We have been extremely satisfied with the entire process. The quality of the parts we received is of the highest order and the accuracy of the measurements is truly spectacular."

"This is just an update for you and a testimony to the great help that your product was in assisting us during our installation and maintenance work and shutdown periods. We installed the wedge blocks with ease and they performed in the very same manner. Great product!"

"We are having great success with this unit (Microgage 2D Universal Kit) in moving my machines this year."

Martin Usher

"The sales department was very knowledgeable and the technical department was very thorough. The Microgage 2000 was exactly what we needed. We are extremely happy with the results."

Dr. Joshua R. Williams

"One thing that stands out and has been commented on by all who have seen the equipment is its design and build quality. It is a beautifully engineered and built piece of equipment, which is a pleasure to use. Well Done!"

Nenad Sarcevic, Engineer
Airbus UK

"We purchased the Microgage 2000 Universal Kit to align a test apparatus so that the floor of the test tank and the left wall are straight down their respective lengths of 80 feet to 0.0002 inch or better. The floor and left wall also had to be perpendicular to each other

The laser system worked extremely well, proving us and our customer the confidence that the installation when as planned within the tolerances."

Project Coordinator/Quality Assurance Manager
Hewitt (Brockville) Ltd

"We have been using your equipment regularly to align our scanners for last 4 years with excellent results! After using these we actually wonder how we could align our scanners with out using this tool! These have indeed helped us to improve our sensors measurement accuracy many fold."

Manish Garg
Jasch Industries Ltd.

"We have been very pleased with its (Microgage 2D) performance, as well as Ken Nelson’s advice and help. It is quite likely we will be purchasing other units in the future."

Walt Corey

“I used the Laser for 6 weeks at the factory in China. It is an awesome tool. I aligned everything on the machine and managed to get the whole machine straight, level and square. I had several fixtures made the worked well for quick setup. My only regret is that I couldn't get them to purchase the upgraded controller. Thanks for everything. You have a quality product that delivers exactly as advertised.”
