A profile projector, also known as an optical comparator or shadowgraph, is a precision measuring instrument used in manufacturing and quality control processes to compare the dimensions of a part or component against a standard or desired specifications.
Profile projectors are particularly useful for inspecting parts with complex geometries or tight tolerances, such as gears, cams, threads, and intricate machined components.

A profile projector, also known as an optical comparator or shadowgraph, is a precision measuring instrument used in manufacturing and quality control processes to compare the dimensions of a part or component against a standard or desired specifications.
Profile projectors are particularly useful for inspecting parts with complex geometries or tight tolerances, such as gears, cams, threads, and intricate machined components. They offer a non-contact, high-precision method of measurement and are widely used in industries like automotive, aerospace, electronics, and medical device manufacturing.
