WedgeLink DG Hardware Wedge

Input Data from Digital Gages into your PC Application


The WedgeLink DG is a hardware keyboard wedge that supports digital gages from CDI, Federal (Maxum and µMaxum), Mitutoyo and Ono Sokki.  Other manufacturers also produce gages that have a Mitutoyo compatible output.  These include Federal, LMI and others.  These gages will also work with WedgeLink DG.

With the WedgeLink DG, you can transfer gage readings into any PC application that accepts keyboard input.  Some of the more common applications that are used with the WedgeLink DG include Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, etc.

Unlike wedges from other manufacturers, if the cable you have connected to WedgeLink DG fails (not uncommon with many handheld gages), you only have to replace the gage cable and not the entire wedge assembly.  Other manufacturers permanently attach the gage cable to the wedge which requires you to replace the entire wedge when the gage cable fails.

A table comparing the WedgeLink keyboard wedges available from MicroRidge can be found on the WedgeLink Overview page.

  • Supports both single and continuous read modes.

  • Connector available for external foot switch or hand switch.

  • Output format is gage measurement followed by a carriage return.
