In April 2019 WD Hearn successfully installed a Starret HF750 Horizontal Floor Standing Optical Comparator at Consol Glass, the largest profile projector by WD Hearn in over 10 years.

The large HF750 is time tested, cost effective, solution for non-contact measurement. They are simple to use, yet have excellent capacity and performance to satisfy an exceptionally wide range of dimensional inspection applications and complex measuring requirements. At the heart of these systems are precision optics, superb lighting and a highly accurate workstage which combine to ensure bright, sharp images and exceptional accuracy. Horizontal models work well with parts that need to be fixtured, held in a vice, or on centers.

The HF750 features an extra large 30" screen, 300mm X-axis and 20mm Y-Axis motorized travel (CNC control optional), a lens turret with 3 lens capacity, Q-axis digital protractor with angular measurements to 1' resolution, your choice of powerful Quadra-Chek or MetLogix software control systems, canopy and curtains.

Consol has been forming glass for 70 years and is considered one of South Africa's largest companies in the glass industry. Please follow the link for more information. www.consol.co.za
