FAQ
1. What is the difference between models?
Models differ by measuring range and resolution. The 0.001mm version offers higher precision for fine inspection, while larger ranges are suited for longer travel measurements.
2. Accuracy vs Resolution?
- Resolution: smallest readable increment (0.01mm or 0.001mm)
- Accuracy: allowable deviation from true value (varies by model)
3. Mechanical vs Digital indicator?
- Mechanical: robust, no power required
- Digital: faster reading, no parallax error, supports data output
4. Which industries use digital indicators?
Machining, automotive, electronics, aerospace, and metrology labs.
5. Is customization available?
Yes. OEM services include:
- Logo printing
- Firmware/function customization
- Packaging design
- Barcode and labeling
