Solartron probes and sensors are used to check critical dimensions of Hard Disk Drive components.


Hard disk drives are still the most common storage device for computersand servers. However, market forces are requiring HDD's to be smaller, with higher storage capability and razor thin profit margins.

The Solartron Ultra Feather Touch probe is built for the measurement of delicate surfaces that cannot be marred or scratched. Both nylon and ruby tips available.

Ultra Fether Touch probes can be used as a viable alternative to non-contact.

Combining multiple sensors using the Orbit Digital Measurement network is easy and data can be read using a Solartron readout or the Gauge Computer Software making system integration simple.
