The Mitutoyo 570-314 LCD Absolute Digimatic height gauge displays a metric measurement range of 0” - 24"/0 - 600 mm, an LCD digital readout precise to 0.0005”/0.01 mm, with + or - 0.002”/0.05 mm of accuracy, and data output to transmit results to a Mitutoyo miniprocessor or computer for statistical process control (SPC).

This height gauge has an electronic microprocessor providing the ability to preset a reference height at any position, as well as to set a temporary zero position and return to a true zero reading. The output port transmits results to a Mitutoyo miniprocessor or computer through an interface cable (not included) for statistical process control (SPC). The gauge has a plug to receive input from an electronic touch probe (not included) for efficient digital measurement. An electrostatic capacitance linear encoder helps prevent overspeed errors to help ensure repeatable, precise measurement. A hand-operated feed wheel raises and lowers the gauge on the beam for measurement ease, and a clamp lever allows the user to hold measurement position. The scriber, used to mark a position on a workpiece, is 30 mm x 60 mm (H x W), carbide-tipped to help prolong life, and is held to the gauge by a screw clamp for fastening ease. The grip-base helps hold the unit in position by hand. The height gauge weighs 13 lbs/5.9 kg. The unit comes with an SR44 battery.

Height gauges, also called gages, are precision measuring instruments that travel on a vertical column (also called the beam) to measure and/or mark the vertical distance from the base of an object in fine units. The vertical position of the gauge and its attached pointer are changed by turning a calibrated screw, or one or more feed wheels. Recorded rotations are read from a scale, a dial, counters, and/or an electronic display. A screw clamp holds the pointer to the gauge. The pointer is typically sharpened to act as a scriber, and can be used to mark position on a workpiece by scratching its surface. On compatible units, the scriber may be replaced by an electronic touch-signal probe. Height gauges are typically used in manufacturing, machining, and mechanical engineering.
