The Measuring Digital Vernier Caliper 6Inch is a precision instrument that can be used to measure internal and external distances extremely accurately. The example shown below is a digital caliper as the distances/measurements, are read from a LCD display. The most important parts have been labelled.
Earlier versions of this type of measuring instrument had to be read by looking carefully at the imperial or metric scale and there was a need for very good eyesight in order to read the small sliding scale. Manually operated vernier calipers can still be bought and remain popular because they are much cheaper than the digital version. Also, the digital version requires a small battery whereas the manual version does not need any power source.
Digital calipers are easier to use as the measurement is clearly displayed and also, by pressing the inch/mm button the distance can be read as metric or imperial.
The material to be measured is placed between the external jaws and they are carefully brought together. The locking screw is tightened so that the jaws do not move apart. The digital display can then be read. The distance can be read by in metric and imperial by pressing the inch/mm button.
