Mitutoyo 293-340-30 is the best micrometers so far that we recommend. It has excellent quality both for standard use and also for professionals. In this post, we are very happy to review it directly. We’ve just bought it. We are going to uncover all about it. This post covers the content of the first time … Read more

Gauge blocks come with a purpose to serve as a reference standard for length. Hence, this is a very important part of your measurement quality. And, we use them frequently whether in lab or workshop. Dimensional measuring instruments such as micrometers (outside, inside, and depth micrometers), calipers (both the vernier, dial, and digital caliper models), … Read more

Cosine error occurs in the dial indicator when the direction of measurement of an object is at a certain angle (not as it should be) against the tip of the dial indicator. As the angle increases, the value of cosine error also increases. This error is small in value but it’s considerable when we want … Read more

The Visual Fault Locator (VFL), like the continuity tester, is an essential instrument in any fiber optic tool kit. The VFL is not one of the cheapest instruments in your toolbox. Function It will help you to easily discover optical fiber breakage or macro bends, as well as a bad fusion splice in multimode or … Read more

Lately, the discussion over 5G radiation is highly intense. Some people concern the health effect of this radiation on the body. While some others, due to not enough evidence, consider that this radiation is harmless. Fortunately, the government and other related authorities have set together to conclude the exposure limit of this radiation both for … Read more

When it comes to linear measurements, it means length, width, height, thickness, depth, diagonal, diameter, etc. It is about the straight or shortest distance between two points. Length is one of the most measured linear distances. Tools to measure length have been existing from the beginning of humanity. People utilized fingers to measure short length … Read more

Speed is the unit of measurement for the object’s movement per time unit. It commonly simplified as km/hour or m/s. The more distance it passes and the shorter the time it takes, the higher the speed of that particular object. Measuring the speed of a particular object is important for us. When you are evaluating … Read more

You may have heard the terms measurement uncertainty when calibrating your caliper with gauge blocks. In other words, wringing more gauge blocks can contribute more to the measurement uncertainty. The same thing goes with when using the workshop grade gauge blocks, it has more uncertainty compared to the master grade ones. How that could be? … Read more

Because of its capability in providing accurate measurement, many work fields rely on the micrometer. It is widely used in machining, metalworking, machinery, mechanical engineering, laboratory, home use, engine building, hobby (cartridge reloading), etc., all the things that need high accuracy. It measures thickness, inside diameter, outside diameter, length, and depth. There is actually a … Read more

When buying a dial indicator, it’s vital to know some types of dial indicators. One of the advantages of recognizing them is to prevent picking one that is not suitable for you. If you are new in this case, this post should be one of your priorities to read first. Before you read further, make … Read more
