Andrews Products - EZCAM DETAILS

With an EZCAM, you can inspect one single lobe, two lobes (intake and exhaust) or an entire camshaft. In addition to data for all cam lobes, you get ALL of the lobe tip angles too. Captured data is saved to a file for later study. Instrument resolution is .10 degrees and .000005 inches.
Cam lobe data is taken by rotating the camshaft manually or with a motorized spindle. Measurements can be taken using a round or flat measuring probe. Data is then mathematically converted to the correct engine follower type and size.
A complete mathematical analysis is then performed which includes one degree output for lift, velocity, acceleration, jerk and radius of curvature. Data smoothing can also be performed on screen. Output options include data analysis to the screen or a printer. Original data can be analyzed, smoothed and corrected for shaft eccentricity and base circle runout, and then saved to disk for easy recall.

Available with round or flat follower probes

Model M26	EZCAM instrument for small engine camshafts (shown here with a 10" long camshaft). EZCAM system with super precision live center headstock, dead center tail stock and tungsten carbide tipped centers. Headstocks are made by Andrews Products and have maximum runout not exceeding .000060 (60 millionths inches) or .0015 mm.

EZCAM with precision roller V-block bearing supports with motor controller. All EZCAM systems use precision monorail linear guideways for accurately positioning the Heidenhain probe at the desired cam lobe. Monorails provide great accuracy and rigidity while allowing positioning of the probe with a light hand motion.	Model M46

Model M25	Shown to the left is the entry level EZCAM system with V-block bearing supports and manual camshaft rotation. All EZCAM systems are available with various types of followers, including easily replaceable tungsten carbide bars, and tungsten carbide rollers.
