  2. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer_(device)

    Vernier micrometer reading 5.783 ± 0.001 mm, comprising 5.5 mm on main screw lead scale, 0.28 mm on screw rotation scale, and 0.003 mm added from vernier. Some micrometers are provided with a vernier scale on the sleeve in addition to the regular graduations. These permit measurements within 0.001 millimetre to be made on metric micrometers ...

  3. Vernier scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_scale

    Vernier caliper scales; main at top, vernier at bottom. It reads 3.58 ± 0.02 mm by adding 3.00 mm (left red mark) on the fixed main scale to vernier 0.58 mm (right red mark). The main scale reading is that to the left of the zero on the vernier scale. The vernier reading is found by locating the best aligned lines between the two scales.

  4. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    A caliper using a calibrated screw for measurement, rather than a slide, is called an external micrometer caliper gauge, a micrometer caliper or, more often, simply a micrometer. (Sometimes the term caliper, referring to any other type in this article, is held in contradistinction to micrometer.)

  5. Micrometre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometre

    The micrometre (Commonwealth English as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; [1] SI symbol: μm) or micrometer (American English), also commonly known by the non-SI term micron, [2] is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equalling 1 × 10 −6 metre (SI standard prefix "micro-" = 10 −6); that is, one millionth of a metre (or one thousandth of a ...

  6. Least count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_Count

    The stopwatch is more precise at measuring time intervals than the sundial because it has more "counts" (scale intervals) in each hour of elapsed time. Least count of an instrument is one of the very important tools in order to get accurate readings of instruments like vernier caliper and screw gauge used in various experiments.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Micrometer.svg

    English: Illustration of a micrometer caliper. The micrometer is showing a measurement of 7.145 mm ± 0.005 mm. Legend: Anvil: part that the spindle moves toward, and that the sample rests against; Spindle: moved by the thimble towards the anvil; Ratchet stop: limits applied pressure by slipping at a calibrated torque

  8. Bore gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_gauge

    To accurately detect the maximal distance between the two halves of the gauge head, move the head of the gauge around while making the measurement to ensure you get the maximal reading. Grasp the gauge near the head to aid in your maneuvering of the gauge while adjusting the micrometer so it just stops the gauge's motion at one spot only.

  9. Traveling microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling_microscope

    A metallic carriage clamped to a spring-loaded bar slides with its attached vernier and reading lens along an inlaid strip of metal scale. The scale is divided in half millimeters. Fine adjustments are made by means of a micrometer screw for taking accurate reading. Both vernier reading to 0.01mm or 0.02mm.
