Zusammenfassung:A workpiece centering gauge for a grinding machine includes a link having a first pivot configured to couple with the grinding machine; a first encoder that measures an angle of the link at the first pivot; a second pivot included with the link; a measuring fork configured to releasably contact an outer surface of an elongated workpiece; a surface feeler, having a transducer, included with the measuring fork that measures a workpiece diameter a second encoder that measures an angular position of the link relative to the measuring fork; the angular position measured by the first encoder, the angular position measured by the second encoder, and a measured workpiece diameter are used to determine a deviation of the elongated workpiece from a centerline.
