Leitz measuring machines, Leitz probe heads and QUINDOS software are designed to inspect any geometry, including any kind of gear or gear cutter, without a rotary table.

Using only three axes instead of four means:

• Better system accuracy, especially for the inspection of large and heavy gears
• Higher throughput due to pallet measurements
• Easy set up, no centering or alignment of the gear required
• Less investment and less maintenance costs
• Software certification: QUINDOS Gear software is certified by the PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt) of Germany.
• Gear standards: Evaluations according ISO, DIN, AGMA, JIS and CNOMO, all included in the QUINDOS Gear basic package. Also available is gear evaluation according to Caterpillar standards.
• Accuracy:
  - Small and medium size gears: comparable to a dedicated gear measuring machine
  - Large and heavy gears: Leitz gear inspection centres do provide better accuracy because no rotary table is used.
• Measuring speed:
  - Small gears: similar to a dedicated gear checker but much higher throughput with pallets
  - Large and heavy gears: faster than a dedicated gear measuring machine because the gear does not need to be turned
• Flexibility: If your Leitz gear inspection centre has some idle time, you can use it as a high precision coordinate measuring machine to inspect just any component.
