Product Overview
The Mitutoyo 500-180-30 is a compact, high-precision digital caliper designed for applications where space is limited or where smaller workpieces require easier handling. With a measuring range of 0 to 100mm, it is significantly lighter and more manoeuvrable than standard 150mm models, making it a favourite among jewellers, dental technicians, and precision engineers working on small-scale components. Despite its size, it retains the full functionality of the “Digimatic” series, including the Absolute (ABS) AOS (Advanced Onsite Sensor) induction type encoder. This sensor is resistant to environmental contaminants such as dirt, oil, and water that can cause false readings on standard capacitive sensors. The caliper features a thumb roller for fine adjustment and provides instant, error-free readouts on a clear LCD screen.
