EASSON
ES-8ABasic and Special
Functions Explained:
Clear Zero
- Sets the current position to zero. Allows the operator to specify any
desired point as the "0" reference point.
Inch/Metric
Display Conversion
- Allows the operator to choose between inch and metric display.
Resolution is .0002" or .005mm.
Direct Entry
-
Allows operator to manually input desired dimension / coordinate.
Result Transfer
-
A point value computed from the calculator feature can be entered and
found.
ABS/INC
(Absolute / Incremental) -
Allows the operator to switch between absolute and incremental display.
'Absolute' display references the work piece zero coordinate you
designate. You may choose the absolute center point of your workpiece or
perhaps a corner of your workpiece, the decision is yours. Incremental
display references any arbitrary coordinate/position without losing your
designated zero point. For example, to locate a point exactly in the
middle of your workpiece you would most likely use 'absolute' display to
locate the point. To locate points exactly .78 distant from an arbitrary
point somewhere in the middle of your workpiece, you would then switch
to 'incremental' display, designate the present position as a zero
point, and then simply move your workpiece until .78 was displayed.
Center Find
Function
-
Automatically calculates the center of the workpiece after the edges are
located.
199 Reference
or Sub Datum Memory (SDM) Points -
Are you doing any sort of repetitive machining? Wouldn't it be great to
be able to create exact copies of your original workpiece? Well now you
can - either enter your points as you move to them on your workpiece or
simply enter them in a list format - the choice is yours!
Power
off Memory
(Reference
Datum Memory)
-
This function allows the operator to store the work piece zero position
in memory. If the machine is turned off at night or there is a power
failure, the zero reference point can be recovered without having to
reestablish the work piece zero point.
Linear Hole
Tool Positioning -
Provides a linear hole positioning function for drilling holes a fixed
distance apart, at any angle.
Incline Tool
Position
-Allows the operator to accurately position the workpiece at an
angle on the work table. Also allows an incline function for machining
parts positioned on an inclined surface.
Bolt Hole
Circle (aka as PCD or Pitch Circle Diameter) -
Using the Bolt Hole circle function, the operator can drill holes in a
circle from a designated center point.
ARC Machining
-
Allows the operator to make radius and arc cuts.
Built In
Calculator
- The display includes a built in calculator function which provides
normal mathematical functions such as: add, subtract, multiply,
division, sin, cosine, tangent, square root, etc.
Parameters
Setup
-
Enables you to swap or 'reverse' the direction a scale reads, also
allows the operator to perform a memory check.
Linear ErrorCompensation - Common to all of Easson's displays, provides
improved display accuracy.
Non Linear
Error Compensation
- Specific to Borers and Grinders, this function provides a cost
effective method to improve display accuracy.
Shrinkage
Calculation
- For mold making, allows the operator to enter a shrink factor to
compensate for material shrinkage during cooling.
High Noise Immunity &
(EMC) Design
A triple stage
noise filter is used in the ES-8 for transducer signals input noise
filtering which offer very wide frequency bandwidth (1 KHz-1000MHz)
noise attenuation. Extreme care was taken in PCB and component layout to
achieve the highest possible noise immunity and EMC performance.
Adaptable to Poor Electrical Sources
A low power
consumption approach was used in the system design of the ES-8. The ES-8
can handle a wide range of supply voltages (160v~260v/80v~130v). The
ES-8's linear power supply offers excellent noise immunity and proven
highest reliability without serious heat generation. Use of a combined
capacitor-varistor noise filter in the power supply system ensures the
highest possible noise and surge immunity to poor electrical sources.
High Durability Switch Membrane
An Autotex series
polyester film from UK'S Autotype Ltd. is used as the key membrane
of the ES-8. Autotex polyester film is known as the highest quality,
highest specification membrane film available in the membrane switch
manufacturing industry. Autotex film offers excellent switch life and
chemical resistance to the most commonly used industry solvents. Switch
life expectancy is rated at a minimum of 100,000 cycles.
Robust Casing, Chromium Plated Panel
The front plate is
made from 1.5mm thick electroplated steel. The high strength 3.5mm metal
casing provides a high quality, robust housing.
Ultra Low Temperature Rise Transformer
Reducing heat
generation is critical to longevity. An ultra low temperature rise high
permeability iron core transformer is utilized, which significantly
reduces core temperature rise to about 5 degrees Celsius.
State of the Art Electronics Technology
A custom 3 axes
counting ASIC designed with CMOS technology greatly reduces the number
of component counts, which lowers the system power consumption and
yields greater reliability.
Advanced Production Technology
An SMT assembly
process is used in manufacturing the ES-8. All components are soldered
by computerized control soldering machines to achieve the highest
quality soldering possible.
Totally Sealed Enclosure
The enclosure
of the ES-8 is completely sealed to protect the electronic circuitry
against the hazards of a typical shop environment, such as dust,
evaporated coolant, fumes from EDM machining, etc. To avoid overheating
of the PCB caused by the totally sealed enclosure, a metal front plate
and panel is utilized to quickly dissipate generated heat.
Non Linear Error Compensation
In an application
where a very high degree of accuracy is required, such as grinding
machines, boring machines, etc. it is very costly and also very
difficult to achieve the required micron grade accuracy. The ES-8
offers a very cost effective way to improve the display accuracy by
utilizing non-linear error compensation. The non-linear error
compensation function of the ES-8 is very similar to the non-linear
error compensation that is commonly found in CNC machine controllers.
Glass Scale Kits
At DRO PROS, we only sell true five bearing
scales with our glass scale kits, and with over 70 different size scales to
choose from, we fit your machine right! For .0002" resolution scales up to
39.3" in capacity (models 100mm - 1000mm), the scales are included in the
price of the kit and there is no surcharge. Simply tell us what size scale
you'd like and we'll send the correct length scale. For scales greater than
39" capacity (our oversize scales), there is a small surcharge based on
length when purchased with a kit.
Why does DRO PROS
post their digital readout part prices online when other companies don't?
That's because if you
were to find out what other companies are going to charge you for parts
when you need them, you
might not buy their digital readout kit in the first place!
At
DRO PROS, we're proud to show off our low part prices.
Go DRO PROS!
Why should you buy from
DRO PROS?
We speak
English - We answer our phones - Same day shipping
Veteran
owned, Veteran managed - and proud of it!
Our goal is to
make customers for life. We feel that, in the long run, treating
customers right will yield much more than simply "going for the
sale". In accordance with that, we have attempted to pass on some
ideas to help you, the customer, in completing your purchase
decision:
Price.
Probably the most talked about factor when buying a
digital readout.
Price can also be the most misleading, and perhaps worst way, to
judge a digital readout kit. We've all heard the old adage, "You get
what you pay for." Before the internet, it was true, price did
generally correlate directly to value. But that was yesterdays
economy. All resellers obtained their goods the same way, and
therefore incurred the same costs. In today's economy, the market
has changed drastically. At DRO PROS, we import and sell directly to
you. Unlike our competitors, we do not have Western and Eastern
sales divisions and multi layers of management to support. One
location, one cost, and the savings get passed on to you!
Intuitiveness or "Ease of Use".
Probably the
most important, and hardest to determine factor when buying a
readout.
Think in terms of after the sale. Even if you get an absolute 'rock
star' bottom line price that would make William Shatner proud, if
the
digital readout
is not user friendly, you still didn't get a 'deal'. The whole point
of getting a
digital readout
is to make your work easier and more enjoyable. If the
digital readout is poorly designed, too complicated, if the display
isn't bright enough, or in other words is 'user unfriendly', you'll
regret your purchase decision every time you turn it
on. It simply won't matter what you paid, it's not worth
it!
Support.
Most likely the second most important, and perhaps most overlooked
factor when buying a
digital readout.
Imagine trying to reach a technician when you've bought a
digital readout
from an overseas reseller! Yet every day, people "save" $50 and buy
products on eBay without stopping to think what will happen when
they need service or tech support. Some
digital readout
resellers don't even publish a phone number! While our competitors
continue to pare down or even totally eliminate their customer
support, we continue to expand our Customer Service. Our Video
Tutorials are the best in the industry, and are available free for
you, our customers. Our tech help is the best in the business - our
techs all know our readouts inside and out. Nobody knows digital readouts like
DRO PROS!
Warranty.
DRO PROS is proud to offer the industries safest, longest, 6 year
warranty on all of our Electronica magnetic scale kits. All of our
DRO PROS brand glass scale kits
come with a full 3 year warranty, and our EASSON kits come standard
with a 1 year warranty.
DRO PROS brand warranty claims are handled directly
by DRO PROS. No run-arounds, no hassle! Something not working as
expected? Call us, don't get redirected overseas like the other
guys!
Parts.
Can
you believe some resellers don't carry parts? That's right, buy from
the "other guys", break a scale, and you get to replace the entire
digital readout
kit! Don't assume you can just go buy a different brand scale,
either, because most manufacturers use different connectors on their
scales. If that wasn't enough, even among those with a common
connector, such as a DB9, most are hard wired differently. Finally,
don't overlook the cost of parts. At DRO PROS, an
800mm replacement scale will cost you $197. A similar scale sold
extensively by a European company will cost nearly $700! Finally, we
have a massive inventory of parts, so rest easy - a replacement part
is only a phone call away!
The Best
Value.
We literally search world-wide for the best value
digital readout
products on the planet. If there was a better
digital readout
package to be sold, we would be selling it. Yes, we've seen cheaper
units on eBay, but there is a reason they're cheaper. Think poor
quality, no parts, no manual, non-existent customer service, poor
product fit/finish etc.
Customer
Service.
We pledge to
never "over sell" you on a product that won't work well for you. Our
philosophy is to try and save you money and get the best value kit
tailored to the machinery you have. Many of our customers are
surprised when we recommend against buying a more expensive brand.
Again, our philosophy is to build customers for life. Give us a call
and let us save you money!
Shipping.
Most orders
ship the same day, the next at the latest. We do not 'drop' ship, we
have our own massive warehouse of inventory right here on site. We
use UPS, you'll get a tracking number emailed to you immediately,
and we cover all shipping insurance automatically.
The
