Mitutoyo Series 550 ABSOLUTE Digimatic Calipers with Nib Style Jaws
Mitutoyo's absolute Digimatic Caliper is the next generation of electronic calipers. It keeps track of its origin point once set. Whenever turned on, the large LCD displays the actual slider position ready to start measurement. No more repeated zero setting is necessary with the absolute encoder technology, as well as no more concern for overspeed errors.
The Mitutoyo ABSOLUTE digital caliper delivers accurate, repeatable outside dimension, inside dimension, depth and step measurements with accuracy and unrestricted speed. The caliper’s slide and jaws are constructed of hardened stainless steel. The impact-resistant, easy-to-ready LCD display is highly durable and provides large character height which improves readability.
ABSOLUTE Linear Encoder
This is an electronic measuring scale that provides a direct readout of absolute linear position when switched on, without needing to be zeroed or reset. Electrostatic, electromagnetic and a combination of electrostatic and optical methods are used in implementing this capability but the key feature is Mitutoyo’s patented technology of building absolute positional information into the scale so it can be read at start up. These linear encoders are widely used in Mitutoyo’s measuring instruments as the in-built length standard and their use greatly contributes to the generation of highly reliable measurement data, particularly in harsh environments where contamination by cutting fluids, coolants and dust must not affect performance
Statistical Process Control (SPC) Output
Statistical process control is the application of statistical methods to monitor and control a process, enabling more efficient quality control. This helps to ensure the process operates as efficiently, producing more specification-confirming products with less waste. SPC cables are used to output measurement data from the Digimatic gage with the output feature to the Digimatic mini processor, Digimatic display unit, multiplexer or other device.
