But perhaps more importantly, this is also the cue for an examination of high precision dimensional measurement. So I’ve assembled a collection of micrometers and vernier calipers of varying ...

A micrometer is a precision measuring instrument used by mechanical engineers, machinists and other workers in technical or ...

It might surprise you to know that the common tape measure is not only one of the essential items needed in a home tool kit, ...

A couple of years ago we published a look at precision measurement tools, in particular vernier calipers and micrometer screw gauges. It featured a look at how they work and how they’re used ...

Laser micrometers are capable of measuring outside diameter for mechanical engineering and machining purposes. Within the micrometer is a transmitting unit responsible for emitting a laser beam that ...

or other common measuring device. A simple, fairly accurate, and easily-made apparatus of the micrometer form may be constructed as follows: Get a common iron or brass bolt about y of an inch in ...

Users can position the measurement object anywhere within the light curtain, and there is flexibility in choosing the distance between the transmitter and receiver. The optoCONTROL 2520-46(090) and ...
