Dial gauge/indicator a measuring instrument in which small displacements of a spindle or a lever are magnified by suitable mechanical means to a pointer rotating in front of a circular dial having a graduated scale. Dial gauge indicators are also utilized as comparators in many fields. There are 3 types of dial gauges: Dial indicators in which the spindle is parallel to the dial face Dial indicator in which the spindle is perpendicular to the […]
What is Micrometer? A micrometer is a precision measuring instrument, used to obtain very fine measurements and is available in metric and imperial versions. Metric micrometers typically measure in 0.01mm increments and imperial versions in 0.001 inches. The measurements they provide can be more accurate than those given by other measuring devices such as dial calipers or vernier calipers but depend very much on the user’s care. Accuracy of the Micrometer The accuracy of the […]
