COMPENDIUM INCLINATION MEASUREMENT
WYLER AG, WINTERTHUR / SWITZERLAND

FLATNESS MEASUREMENT ON A CIRCULAR SUPPORT OF A TURNTABLE
Subject:
The software LEVELSOFT PRO allows users to determine the flat-
ness of a rectangular surface very easily. The measurement of the
flatness of a circular support though, as it is used for large machi-
ne tools, is much more complex. However, with the software MT-
SOFT and electronic inclination measuring instruments, appropri-
ate means are available.
Measuring task:
The flatness of a circular support with a diameter of 2.3 m has to
be measured.

LONG TERM MONITORING OF DAMS
Subject:
The requirements regarding long term monitoring of dams are
continuously increasing: where it was sufficient earlier to carry
out periodic measurements, today more and more permanent
monitoring is required.
Measuring task / Goal:
The changes in inclination of a dam shall be monitored continu-
ously.

CONTINUOUS MONITORING OF AN OBJECT THAT IS EXPOSED TO SIGNIFICANT TEMPERATURE CHANGES
Subject:
On a radar installation that is exposed to significant tempera-
ture changes as well as to direct sunlight, precise, reliable and
continuous inclination measurements should be carried out. All
high-precision instruments are sensitive to temperature changes.
Significant temperature changes inhibit precision measurements
and can even prevent them.
Measuring task:
Precise and continuous monitoring of the inclination of the base
of the radar station.
Precise and continuous monitoring of the inclination of reference
casing of the incremental protractors of the radar.
