Overview
The Klingelnberg P 65 Precision Measuring Center is the measuring machine for gears up to 650 mm in clamping and testing diameter between centers, with a 500 kg workpiece weight and a module range of 0.30 – 35 mm; 0.20 mm is shown in brackets.
The jump from the smaller machine is larger than the model numbers suggest. The P 40 Precision Measuring Center allows 300 kg and a moment of inertia of 5 kgm². The P 65 allows 500 kg and 100 kgm², twenty times the inertia for well under twice the weight. That ratio says the machine is meant for large-diameter discs and ring-type gears, which carry their mass far from the axis, as much as for heavy shafts. It shows in the machine too: net weight is approx. 4,050 kg with standard equipment and rated power 2.3 kVA including the printer, where the P 40 needs 0.7 kVA.
Upward, the P 100 keeps the same ±200 mm horizontal measuring interval and the same 800 mm vertical interval and weighs only slightly more at approx. 4,200 kg, yet takes 1,000 mm diameters, approx. 2,000 kg and 500 kgm². If parts sit near the top of the P 65 range, the larger machine is the obvious comparison.
On the P 65 the Z interval of 800 mm has 1,200 mm in brackets, the distance between centers of 50 – 1,000 mm has 1,500 mm in brackets, and the height of 2,430 mm has 2,930 mm. The footprint is 2,220 x 2,140 mm. Accuracy is Group A under VDI/VDE 2612 sheet 6, with MPE_E0 of 1.8 µm + L/450 mm between 18 and 22 Celsius and 1.8 µm + L/250 mm between 15 and 35 Celsius under ISO 10360-2:2010.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 100 kgm² permissible moment of inertia, twenty times the 5 kgm² of the P 40 Precision Measuring Center
- 650 mm clamping and testing diameter with a 500 kg workpiece weight
- Module range extends to 35 mm
- Horizontal measuring interval of ±200 mm, against ±115 mm on the P 40 Precision Measuring Center
- Group A gear measurement accuracy (VDI/VDE 2612 sheet 6)
Limitations
- Rated power of 2.3 kVA, more than three times the 0.7 kVA of the P 40 Precision Measuring Center
- Workpieces over 500 kg or 650 mm need the P 100, which takes approx. 2,000 kg and 1,000 mm
- The bracketed version stands 2,930 mm high, which needs checking against ceiling and crane clearance
- Net weight of approx. 4,050 kg calls for a floor check in a measuring room

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Cylindrical gears up to 650 mm in clamping and testing diameter between centers, up to 500 kg and up to 100 kgm² in moment of inertia. The module range is 0.30 – 35 mm, with 0.20 mm in brackets. The horizontal measuring interval on X is ±200 mm.
02
Mainly in what it can carry. The P 40 Precision Measuring Center takes 400 mm, 300 kg and 5 kgm², while the P 65 takes 650 mm, 500 kg and 100 kgm². The P 65 weighs approx. 4,050 kg net against 2,200 kg for the P 40, and its accuracy class is the same Group A.
03
If parts exceed 500 kg, 650 mm or 100 kgm², yes. The P 100 takes approx. 2,000 kg, 1,000 mm and 500 kgm² and weighs approx. 4,200 kg, only a little more than the P 65 at approx. 4,050 kg. Both have a ±200 mm horizontal measuring interval.
04
Group A for gear measurement under VDI/VDE 2612 sheet 6. Between 18 and 22 Celsius, MPE_E0 is 1.8 µm + L/450 mm, roundness 0.3 µm and total axial runout 1.5 µm. Between 15 and 35 Celsius they are 1.8 µm + L/250 mm, 0.5 µm and 1.8 µm.
05
Rated power is 2.3 kVA including the printer. The compressed air connection is 6 bar at 1 l/min. Plan the floor for a net weight of approx. 4,050 kg with standard equipment, plus the workpiece, which can be up to 500 kg.
