Mitutoyo 293 Series Coolant Proof Micrometer

The Mitutoyo MDC-50MX Coolant Proof Micrometer 25-50 mm Measuring Range 1036622 is a specialized precision measuring device designed to operate effectively in environments with coolant or cutting fluid present. It is commonly employed in industries such as machining, metalworking, and manufacturing, where coolant is used to facilitate machining processes. The primary purpose of this instrument is to accurately measure the dimensions of workpieces while being resistant to the detrimental effects of coolant exposure. The coolant-proof micrometer features a robust and sealed construction, incorporating advanced materials and gaskets to prevent coolant ingress into the internal components. This design ensures the micrometer's longevity and preserves its measurement accuracy even in challenging working conditions. With the ability to withstand coolant exposure, this measuring tool minimizes the risk of corrosion, rust, or damage, guaranteeing reliable and repeatable measurements over time. Utilizing a spindle and anvil system, the coolant-proof micrometer allows users to precisely measure external dimensions of various workpieces, such as shafts, blocks, and other cylindrical objects. The spindle is advanced towards the workpiece with a ratchet or thimble mechanism, and the resulting measurement is displayed on a clear and easy-to-read scale. Regular maintenance and periodic calibration are imperative to sustain the optimal performance of the coolant-proof micrometer. Periodic cleaning of the measuring surfaces and lubrication of moving parts are essential to ensure accurate readings and the longevity of the instrument.
