MICROMETER

A micrometer, often referred to as an outside micrometer, is a precision measuring instrument used to measure dimensions with high accuracy. It consists of a C-shaped frame, an anvil, and a spindle with a calibrated screw mechanism. When the thimble on the end of the spindle is rotated, the spindle moves relative to the anvil, allowing the measurement of the distance between them. Micrometers are commonly used in manufacturing, engineering, and machining applications to measure the diameter or thickness of objects to a high degree of precision, typically to within thousandths of an inch or hundredths of a millimeter.

5-Axis CNC Milling Machine

The efficient design of the Hurco 5-axis trunnion table machining centers is a key benefit to consider—we use an integrated trunnion table at Hurco instead of simply sticking a trunnion table on a 3-axis milling machine and passing it off as a 5-axis machine. The integrated trunnion table design provides more clearance in Z compared to the ad...

VERNIER CALLIPER

A vernier caliper is a precision measuring instrument used to measure linear dimensions with high accuracy. It consists of a main scale marked in millimeters or inches and a sliding vernier scale that allows readings to be taken to a fraction of the smallest division on the main scale. Vernier calipers are versatile tools used in various industries...

3-POINT MICROMETER

A 3-point micrometer, also known as a three-point bore micrometer or three-point internal micrometer, is a specialized measuring instrument used to accurately measure the inside diameter of holes or bores. Unlike traditional two-point micrometers which use anvils that contact opposite sides of the hole, a 3-point micrometer uses three contact point...

BLOCK GAUGE

A block gauge is a precision measuring tool used to check or set dimensions, typically in manufacturing and engineering contexts. It consists of a set of rectangular or square-shaped blocks of known dimensions, made from materials like steel or ceramic. Block gauges are used for calibration, measurement, and quality assurance purposes to ensure acc...
