There are some points that we can identify in the case of the differences between dial indicator and test indicator. The identification of these two indicator models can lead us to deeply understand whether to use the dial indicator or the test indicator when facing a certain measuring challenge. If you are new and on … Read more
Test indicator is a precision measuring tool in the workshop that you could use to measure runout, roundness, flatness, parallelism, and squareness. It’s a recommended choice rather than a plunger dial indicator when it comes to measuring in a higher degree of resolution. In addition to its functions, it can overcome the measuring challenge when … Read more
A dial indicator or dial gauge is able to magnify a tiny hard-to-observe length difference into a rotatable easy-to-count distance. When the plunger moves back and forth, it drives the needle/pointer on the dial scale to rotate. Nicely, this workshop precision measuring tool can give you a resolution down to .001″, even .0001″. By using … Read more
