µMaxµm II Digital Indicators

March 11, 2011
Mahr's second generation of digital indicators offers a wide range of useful features for faster and more accurate measurement.

The µMaxum II line of digital indicators offers a wide range of features including dynamic max/min, TIR; two-point difference measurement; multiplier factor for ratio measurements; indicator serial number identification; resolution to 10 µin.; selectable continuous output; and long battery life.

 

Resolution is selectable in increments from 0.001 in. (0.02 mm) down to 0.00001 in. (0.0002 mm) to accommodate differing application requirements. Two-point difference measurement allows comparison of different readings or calculation of measured values. The addition of multiple factors for ratio measurements allows chordal-type measurements, useful for making ID/OD measurements using a V plate, or for gage fixtures using lever-type non-direct contacts.

 

Data output with indicator serial number identification can be used to improve ISO tracking, where a number of indicators are networked on a production line, or to identify which gauges need to be pulled for recalibration.

 

Other useful features include Normal/Reverse Sensing; a high-resolution digital output with an analog bar graph or Go/No-Go display; selectable MarConnect data output via USB, OPTO ES232C, or Digimatic; application of Unilateral Tolerances; and an auto power-down feature which conserves power and helps assure long life from readily available commercial batteries.

 

The µMaxum II line of Digital Indicators is available in two models, the µMaxum II and the µMaxum II XL which provides longer measuring ranges.
