Profile: Shure Mfg. Co. manufactures precision equipment for the front end manufacturing of quartz crystals, SAW devices and seed cutting for quartz regeneration. We design and manufacture precision machinery to index, cut and check quartz for the crystal industry. We also design & manufacture ball bearing, multi-blade abrasive saw and x-ray analytical set/transfer system. Our set/transfer system consists of a solid state X-ray machine, a non-rotational goniometer and a unique digital/analog ratemeter. The goniometer is unique in the fact that it does not rotate. Instead, different angles are obtained using the principal of a precision sine bar. By rotating the steel transfer/mounting plate against two ground and hardened indexing buttons and utilizing Shure's precision shims, exact angles are easy to obtain. This method avoids rotational and parallax errors inherent in all rotational goniometers.
