Starrett micrometer
The L.S. Starrett Co. offers more than 100 electronic digital micrometers with new features for improved ergonomics, functionality and productivity. The electronic micrometers range from the No. 733.1 outside micrometers to a wide array of application-specific models. To withstand harsh shop elements (including coolant, water, chips, dust and dirt) while retaining tool integrity, the micrometers include an IP67 level of protection on sizes 0-4" (0-100 mm) and on various application-specific models.
The company says that a modern, ergonomic, insulated frame design on the new No. 733.1 0-1" outside micrometer is designed for comfort and ease of use, providing an optimal user measuring experience. The electronic micrometers also offer upgraded electronics, longer battery life, advanced locking mechanism and a large, easy-to-read LCD display. Industry 4.0 ready, Starrett electronic micrometers are equipped with RS232 output, which is well suited for use with data collection systems such as Starrett DataSure.
The Starrett 733.1 electronic micrometers are available in a 0-1" (25mm) model, up to 24" (600 mm) and in 0-6" (152 mm) and 0-12" (304 mm) sets of individual micrometers. The company says that its electronic micrometers are accurate to ±0.0001" (0.002mm) with a resolution of 0.00005" (0.001mm). Micrometers have a knurled and graduated satin chrome finish thimble, and are offered with carbide measuring faces or with 52100 steel measuring faces on some application-specific models
