Wall-thickness gauge with integral signal processing.A non-destructive instrument for measuring wall thickness of bottles, containers, molded parts, hoses, and tubes boasts improved accuracy and reproducibility. The new MiniTest FH 7000 Series probes from ElektroPhysik USA, Arlington Heights Arlington Heights, village (1990 pop. 75,460), Cook county, NE Ill., a residential suburb of Chicago; founded 1836, inc. 1887. Its manufactures include machinery, drugs and medical equipment, and metal fabrication. Arlington Park racetrack is there. , Ill., utilize the magnetostatic principle with sensor-integrated digital signal processing See DSP. Digital Signal Processing - (DSP) Computer manipulation of analog signals (commonly sound or image) which have been converted to digital form (sampled). . Processing measurement signals within the sensor eliminates errors that can arise during transfer over cables from the sensor to a remote signal processor. The FH 7000 also features menu-driven operation that follows a PC-format logic path with context-sensitive help Context-sensitive help is a kind of online help that is obtained from a specific point in the state of the software, providing help for the situation that is associated with that state. screens. Users can read the actual reading along with min/max limits on the large display. Optional software includes job and user identification, time and date stamps Verb 1. date stamp - stamp with a date; "The package is dated November 24" date date - provide with a dateline; mark with a date; "She wrote the letter on Monday but she dated it Saturday so as not to reveal that she procrastinated" , and real-time graphic display of readings. The FH 7000 supersedes the earlier FH 2100 and 4100 models and provides much faster scan rates--up to 20 measurements/sec--as well as greater memory capacity. Two sensors offer measuring ranges of zero to 0.160 or 0.400 in. A complete system includes a removable rubber housing with support easel, supply of target balls, calibration calibration /cal·i·bra·tion/ (kal?i-bra´shun) determination of the accuracy of an instrument, usually by measurement of its variation from a standard, to ascertain necessary correction factors. standards, sensor stand, carrying case, and batteries.
