A precision measuring tool reading micro-displacements via pointer swing, with 0.01mm precision. Commonly used for machine tool accuracy calibration and workpiece geometric tolerance inspection (e.g., roundness, perpendicularity), crucial for dimensional and geometric accuracy control in machining.
In foundries and sandblasting shops that are particularly dirty, workhorse dial indicators are compliant with ISO 463:2003 for industrial endurance standards due to their measuring range of ±3mm with a resolution of 0.01mm. These dust proof dials indicators have their internal mechanisms sealed off to keep out dust while the anti-friction coated spindle guarantees smooth motion”.
Frequently Asked Questions
What industries commonly use dial indicators?
Used in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair sectors, they meet ASME B89.1.3 and ISO 463 standards, providing cost-effective precision for small shops and educational labs.
The digital model’s USB output sent 1000+ readings to our QC software in real time, reducing manual logging errors. Critical for ISO 9001 compliance in aerospace fastener inspections.
Swivel bezels allow instant zero resetting in any orientation, improving efficiency during multi-point measurements. Critical for repetitive quality control checks in production lines.
Data Logging Capability
Digital dial indicators with USB output store up to 1000 readings, supporting statistical process control (SPC) and ISO 9001 compliance. Ideal for traceable inspections in aerospace and medical device industries.
Cost-Effective Inspection
Provides professional-grade precision at a lower cost than digital alternatives, making it a staple in small machine shops, educational labs, and maintenance departments.
