Description
Product Overview
Every machinist needs a trusted daily-driver in their top drawer. The Mitutoyo 150mm, 500-196-30 Digimatic Caliper is the undisputed gold standard for everyday shop floor metrology. This versatile 150mm / 6″ digital caliper combines legendary Japanese mechanical rigidity with advanced electromagnetic sensor technology to provide flawless, instantaneous readings.
- AOS (Advanced Onsite Sensor) Technology: This “-30” series model features Mitutoyo’s cutting-edge AOS electromagnetic inductive sensor. Unlike older digital calipers, this sensor is highly resistant to dirt, oil, and water sitting on the scale. You can measure parts straight off the lathe without worrying about coolant throwing off your reading.
- Absolute Encoder (ABS): Powered by the legendary ABS linear scale. Once you set the origin point, the caliper remembers its exact zero position. Simply turn it on and start measuring immediately without the hassle of re-zeroing. It also completely eliminates over-speed errors, no matter how fast you slide the jaws.
- Instant Metric / Imperial Conversion: Easily toggle between 0.01mm and 0.0005″ resolution at the push of a button, making it the perfect tool for shops handling both metric and imperial prints.
- Exceptional Battery Life: Thanks to ultra-low power consumption, a single SR44 battery yields approximately 3.5 years of normal use, meaning it’s always ready when you reach for it. (Note: This model is designed without an SPC data output port).
Condition
Brand New (Factory Sealed).
This premium digital caliper is brand new, completely unused, and sealed in its original factory packaging.
- Complete Kit: It comes fully complete with its Mitutoyo hard plastic storage case, factory inspection certificate, user manual, and an included SR44 battery so you can power it up right out of the box.
