Mask & Wafer "X" Flexures | |||||||||||||||||
The Mask & Wafer "X" Flexure, with it's special beryllium copper design, allows for great flexibility & high reliability without the un-due stress as in the old welded wire design. The old design, when welded, fatigues the wire and makes it more susceptible to breakage & shortens the life of the wire from heat applied to the wire. | |||||||||||||||||

Gauge Head, Anchor & Center Flexures | |||||||||||||||||
The Gauge Head, Anchor & Center Flexure, with it's new highly reliable tight tolerance shaft & bearing design, allows for easy rotation and high accuracy (repeatability). The old design, which uses a Bendix Flexure (spring) design, stresses the spring each time it is rotated. After some usage, the spring design never returns to it's original position (shape), thus losing repeatibility. | |||||||||||||||||
