ROMESS 09935 Prop-shaft buckling angle gauge

When customers complain about vibrations while driving and/or irregularities in acceleration, the cause can be a deviation in the buckling-angle of the drive shaft from the set point. So far, there were only mechanical tools available to gauge the drive shaft.

With the new electronic drive shaft angle gauge ROMESS CM-09935, the process is significantly easier and more accurate at the same time.

Structure and function
The angle gauge 09935 consists of a hand held unit with graphics display and a sensor for measuring two levels. The measuring range is +/- 15°.

To evaluate the alignment of the drivetrain, you must first measure the angles of the transmission, the prop-shafts and the rear axle differential.

Different adaptations are needed for the sensor gauging the transmission and the differential. To measure the prop shafts, the measuring cones on the sensor can be held directly on the prop shaft. The result are shown on the display and saved by pressing the “Save” key. From two angles the unit calculates the difference which is relevant to the correct alignment of the drive shaft (difference ∠1∠2 = φ1; difference ∠2 ∠3 = φ2; difference ∠3 ∠4 = φ3).

The sensor distinguishes between the x- and y-axis. To receive accurate results, the spiral cord on the sensor should always point toward the front of the vehicle.
