Dial Gauge in Maharashtra
Dial Gauge (also called Dial Indicator):- A dial gauge is a precision measurement instrument used to measure small linear distances, deviations, or variations in a surface. It converts small mechanical movements of a plunger or lever into rotational movement of a pointer on a dial, providing highly accurate readings. Dial gauges are widely used in manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering for tasks such as alignment, checking runout, measuring deflection, or ensuring components meet specified tolerances.
|
High Accuracy |
Can measure very small displacements, usually in the range of 0.01 mm or 0.001 inch, depending on the model. |
|
Clear Analog Display |
Features a circular dial with a pointer that shows readings for easy visualization. |
|
Mechanical Operation |
Uses a plunger, spindle, or lever that moves when in contact with the object being measured. The movement is amplified through gears to rotate the dial pointer. |
|
Versatility |
Can measure axial or radial deviations, flatness, thickness variations, or roundness of objects. |
|
Compact Design |
Portable and easy to mount on magnetic bases or stands, making it convenient for workshop and field use. |
|
Durability |
Built to withstand industrial environments; some models come shock-resistant or dustproof. |
|
Graduation Marks |
Dials are marked with fine graduations for precise readings, often with a full-scale rotation indicating one revolution of the pointer. |
|
Range of Accessories |
Can be fitted with different plungers, levers, and mounting fixtures for specialized measurements. |
|
Zero Adjustment |
Dial gauge pointers can be set to zero at a reference point for relative measurements. |
