Digital Laser Non-Contact RPM & Hour Meter Gauge

Accurate non-contact RPM and hour tracking for motors and lathes

This digital laser tachometer and hour meter is designed for precise, contactless measurement of rotational speed on motors, lathes, wheels, spindles, and other rotating components. Using a focused laser beam, it detects reflective marks on the rotating surface and calculates RPM (revolutions per minute) without touching the moving part. This reduces risk, protects components, and allows measurements even in hard-to-reach areas. In addition to RPM, the integrated hour meter records total operating time, giving you clear visibility into equipment usage for maintenance planning and service intervals.

The clear digital display presents RPM readings and hour counts in an easy-to-read format, helping technicians, machinists, and maintenance teams verify machine performance quickly. It is well suited for workshop environments, diagnostic checks, machine setup, and routine inspections. As a lathe speed gauge, it helps confirm that the spindle speed matches the required settings for metalworking or woodworking tasks, supporting consistent surface finish and tool life. The non-contact measurement method minimizes wear, vibration interference, and the risk of accidental contact with rotating machinery, contributing to a safer and more controlled working process.

Why It's a Smart Choice

• Non-contact laser measurement protects both the operator and the rotating equipment.
• Combined RPM and hour tracking supports accurate diagnostics and maintenance scheduling.
• Clear digital readout enables quick, confident speed verification in workshop or field use.

FAQ

Q: What can I measure with this digital laser tachometer?
A: It is suitable for checking the rotational speed of motors, lathes, shafts, wheels, fans, and other rotating parts that can accept a reflective target.

Q: How does the non-contact measurement work?
A: A laser beam is directed at a reflective mark on the rotating object. The device counts the reflections over time and calculates the RPM based on that data.

Q: What is the purpose of the hour meter function?
A: The hour meter records the total operating time of a machine, helping you plan lubrication, inspection, and service intervals more accurately.

Q: Is it suitable for both metalworking and woodworking lathes?
A: Yes, it can be used on a wide range of lathes and rotary equipment, as long as a reflective mark can be applied and the laser has a clear line of sight.
