Mitutoyo 572-213-10 Horizontal Electronic Linear Scale

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 572-213-10 is a horizontal electronic linear scale designed for precise positional measurement in machine tool and fixture applications. It covers a measurement range of 0 to 12 inches with a resolution of 0.0005 inches (0.01 mm) and an accuracy of 0.002 inches, making it suitable for applications where repeatable, fine-increment readings are required. The scale outputs data electronically via its built-in data output interface, allowing readings to be captured by compatible data collection systems. Installation is handled by machinists, toolmakers, and precision measurement technicians working in shop environments.

The 572-213-10 is suited for use on jigs, small machine tools, and tooling setups where a horizontal scale orientation is required. The LCD display provides clear, direct readout at the point of measurement. The scale length is 420 mm and the display unit measures 70.8 mm in length by 40.7 mm in width. It is powered by a single SR44 battery, which is included. Typical installations include positioning fixtures, manual milling machine tables, and custom jig assemblies in precision fabrication and metrology environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or precision instrument technicians. Before mounting, ensure the mounting surface is clean, flat, and free of burrs to maintain scale accuracy. Secure the scale body and read head according to the manufacturer's mounting instructions, taking care not to stress the scale body during fastening. Verify alignment of the scale relative to the axis of travel before taking measurements.
