Both devices are easy to operate and offer a clear presentation of the results. Firmware and software updates ensure that the devices are always up to date. The PWT 100 is primarily intended for mobile use in machines and systems in production. It has compact dimensions, a robust design and an integrated 4.3" touchscreen.

The PWM 21 has low measurement tolerances, a wide range of functions and can be calibrated. Closed-loop diagnostics are also possible. Together with the ATS software, it offers a connection dialog, extensive position displays, diagnostic functions, mounting and test assistants as well as the display and modification of memory contents.
