Mitutoyo 293-667 QuantuMike Coolant Proof LCD Micrometer, IP54, Friction Thimble, 25-55mm Range, 0.001mm Graduation, +/-0.002mm

Description

Micrometers are typically used in manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering. There are three types of micrometer: outside, inside, and depth. Inside micrometers are typically used to measure interior diameter, as in a hole. Outside micrometers may also be called micrometer calipers, and are used to measure the length, width, or outside diameter of an object. It also has a non-rotating spindle that helps provide steady positioning during measurement, and a Quickmike spindle that feeds at a rate of 10mm per revolution for a higher rate productivity than a conventional mechanism. These measurements are translated into large rotations of the screw that are then able to be read from a scale or a dial. The company was founded in Tokyo in 1934 and formed Mitutoyo America Corporation in 1963, which is headquartered in Aurora, IL. A ratchet thimble mechanism helps provide uniform pressure for precise, repeatable measurement. It uses the Mitutoyo ABSOLUTE electrostatic capacitance linear encoder to help prevent overspeed errors and help ensure repeatable, precise measurement.The micrometers electronic microprocessor can hold measurements at any position, convert to absolute value. The Mitutoyo 293 series Quickmike Coolant Proof LCD micrometer has a digital single-value LCD readout that displays in metric units with resolution to 0.001mm. The spindle and anvil have flat measuring faces and are carbide-tipped for wear resistance.
