Micrometer- 1. (Micrometer)

Micrometer-1.

A micrometer is an instrument used to make very precise measurements of length and thickness. It works based on the vernier principle, when the thread is wound on a special screw and moves. Micrometers are used in various industries such as mechanical engineering, electronics, medicine and others.

The operating principle of the micrometer is based on the use of a special screw that is screwed onto a thread. The thread is wound around a screw and then moved along a scale located on the micrometer body. In this way, the length or thickness of an object can be determined with very high accuracy.

The designation of a micrometer is “Micrometer” or “Micrometre”. The first letter “M” stands for “micro”, which means “micro”, which is one millionth of a meter. The second letter “icrometer” means “meter”. Thus, a micrometer is a measuring device that is used to measure length or thickness.

In industry, micrometers are used to measure the dimensions of parts, such as the dimensions of holes, shafts, gears and other mechanisms. They are also used to measure the thickness of materials such as paper, plastic, metal and others. Micrometers can be used in a variety of conditions, including high temperature, humidity and aggressive environments.

Although micrometers have high measurement accuracy, they can still produce errors. To reduce the error, it is necessary to use high-quality instruments and carry out calibration before each measurement.



A micrometer is a device for making very precise measurements of length and thickness. It works on the principle of moving a special material wound on a screw, which moves according to the Vernier principle. The wound material is a thread that can be made from various materials such as steel, plastic or fiberglass. Micrometers are used in a variety of fields, including medicine, engineering and manufacturing.

One of the most common types of micrometers is the vernier micrometer. This type of micrometer has a small disk at the end of the screw that moves the counter as the screw rotates. The meter is a scale with a vernier line, which helps determine the exact measurement value. Vernier micrometers can measure to within one thousandth of a millimeter.

Micrometers are indispensable tools for measuring the length and thickness of parts. They are used in various industries to control product quality and to set up and adjust equipment. Micrometric measurements are very precise and can be used to determine the dimensions of parts with high precision.



Micrometer (from the Greek μικρός - small and μέτρον - measure, meter) is an indispensable device in industry, in various branches of science and technology. It allows you to measure various parameters with an accuracy of fractions of a micrometer. In Russia, the abbreviation “micrometer” is more often used, and in international practice, in most cases, “micrometer” or “microscope” is used.

The value of the micrometer device is 1/10,000
