Micrometer
Range:
25-50mm
Readout: Digital and analog
Accuracy: 0.001mm - digital
0.01mm - analog
Application:
A micrometer generally provides greater precision than a vernier caliper, but can measure a smaller range of lengths.
Before using a micrometer:
- Make sure the workpiece being measured is clean and has no burrs on the edges.
- The temperature of the workpiece is required to be around 20°C to have consistent measuring results.
- Precision measuring tools should never be put near a magnetic area to avoid the micrometer being magnetized.
