E-40
Concentricity Gage

Large-diameter eccentric roller checking for the 20–102 mm class.

The Universal Punch E-40 is the large-capacity E-Series Eccentric Roller Checker Gage. It combines the -40 working envelope with Universal Punch's Vertical Roller Carrier for controlled rotational inspection of cylindrical parts.

What Is the E-40?

Built for large-diameter eccentric roller inspection.

The Universal Punch E-40 is an Eccentric Roller Checker Concentricity Gage. Published E-40 general data covers part diameters from 3/4–4 in (20–102 mm) and part lengths up to 8 in (203 mm).

The defining distinction is the Vertical Roller Carrier. Universal Punch uses the E-Series designation for eccentric roller checking, while the -40 suffix identifies the large-capacity class. Customers should therefore select the E-40 from both the workpiece envelope and the measurement architecture—not from diameter alone.

Model selection When should the E-40 be reviewed?

Review the E-40 when the part falls in the -40 capacity class and the inspection objective calls for the E-Series Vertical Roller Carrier / eccentric roller-checking arrangement. Universal Punch can then match the rollers, indicator, stops, support geometry, and optional drive system to the actual print.

Why Choose the E-40?

The E-Series carrier architecture in the large -40 envelope.

Universal Punch model names communicate two separate decisions: the family identifies the measurement architecture, while the suffix identifies capacity. For this model, E-Series = Eccentric Roller Checker and -40 = large 20–102 mm diameter class.

How the Universal System Is Specified

Model. Rollers. Indicator & accessories.

Universal Punch documents the Concentricity Gaging System as three primary selections. Keeping those decisions separate makes the E-40 easier to configure around the actual part rather than treating it as one fixed setup.

E-40 roller support and carrier configuration detail
01Select the E-40 model

The E-40 establishes the E-Series eccentric roller-checker architecture and the large -40 working envelope.

02Select the main rollers

Published -40 main roller sets include Full Plain, Half Plain, and Quarter Plain styles: 140-40FP, 140-40HP, and 140-40QP.

03Select indicator & accessories

Indicator type, carrier position, stop arrangement, fine adjustment, and other accessories are matched to the measurement location and inspection workflow.

Published -40 top-roller choices

The 2025 parts list documents multiple -40 top-roller sizes from 3/4 × 1/2 in through 1-1/4 × 3/4 in. The 1 × 5/16 in (25 × 8 mm) top roller is identified as standard.

Match support geometry to the workpiece

Final roller and contact geometry should be selected from the available support lands, part diameter, surface condition, and measurement objective—not from model number alone.

Optional Powered Rotation

The E-40 has a documented variable-speed motor option.

Universal Punch's 2025 parts documentation specifically identifies an E-40 Variable Speed Motor Assembly with a 19 in / 482 mm base plate. The documented drive-system upgrade uses a 24 VDC variable-speed system with a published 0–10 rpm range and forward/reverse control.

Powered rotation is especially useful when hands-free rotation, repeat inspection, controlled speed, or a more consistent inspection rhythm is desirable. The final motor, transformer, controls, and base configuration should be confirmed when the E-40 is specified.

Model Comparison

Choose the architecture and capacity together.

The E-40 and B-40 occupy the same large -40 envelope but use different carrier architectures. The E-20 uses the same E-Series eccentric roller-checker architecture as the E-40 in a smaller 10–50 mm working range.

E-40 FAQ

E-40 questions, answered.

What is the Universal Punch E-40 Concentricity Gage?
The Universal Punch E-40 is the large-diameter member of the E-Series Eccentric Roller Checker Gage family. It combines the -40 size class with the E-Series Vertical Roller Carrier for rotational inspection of cylindrical parts.
What part sizes can the E-40 inspect?
Published Universal Punch general data lists the E-40 for part diameters from 0.75 inch to 4 inches (20–102 mm) and part lengths from approximately 0.25 inch to 8 inches (6.3–203 mm). The published gage dimensions are 14.5 inches long, 6 inches wide, approximately 8 inches high, with a shipping weight of 11.2 lb.
How is the E-40 different from the B-40?
The E-40 and B-40 share the large -40 working envelope, but they use different measurement architectures. The E-40 is an Eccentric Roller Checker Gage with Vertical Roller Carrier, while the B-40 is a Basic Extended Gage with Standard Carrier.
How is the E-40 different from the E-20?
Both models use the E-Series Eccentric Roller Checker architecture with Vertical Roller Carrier. The E-20 serves the 10–50 mm diameter class for parts up to 6 inches long, while the E-40 expands the envelope to 20–102 mm diameter parts up to 8 inches long.
Which main rollers are published for the E-40 size class?
Universal Punch documents Full Plain, Half Plain, and Quarter Plain main roller sets for -40 models, including 140-40FP, 140-40HP, and 140-40QP. The current parts list also documents multiple -40 top-roller sizes, with the 1 inch by 5/16 inch (25 by 8 mm) top roller identified as standard.
What accuracy classification is documented for the E-40?
Universal Punch documentation states that Standard Black concentricity gages are guaranteed better than or equal to 4 microns (0.00016 inch) accuracy. Precision Gold is documented only for -10 and -20 model classes, so the E-40 should be specified as a Standard Black -40 platform unless Universal Punch confirms another current configuration.
Can the E-40 be motorized?
Yes. The 2025 Universal Punch parts documentation identifies an E-40 Variable Speed Motor Assembly with a 19 inch (482 mm) base plate. The documented variable-speed drive system is 24 VDC with a published 0–10 rpm range and forward/reverse control.
How is an E-40 system configured?
Universal Punch defines the Concentricity Gaging System around three primary selections: choose the gage model, choose the main rollers, then choose the indicator and other accessories. Final E-40 configuration should be matched to the actual part support surfaces, measurement location, indicator requirement, and inspection workflow.
Why do some Universal Punch documents show 20–105 mm while the E-40 general data shows 20–102 mm?
The 2025 gage-selection table describes the Eccentric Roller Checker 40-class as 20–105 mm, while the published E-40 general-data table gives 0.75–4 inches / 20–102 mm. This page uses the more specific E-40 general-data range. Applications above 102 mm should be confirmed directly with Universal Punch before model selection.
