Mitutoyo 572-601 Horizontal Electronic Linear Scale

Product Description

The MITUTOYO 572-601 is a horizontal electronic linear scale designed for precise linear displacement measurement in industrial and metrology applications. It delivers an accuracy of 0.001 inches (0.03 mm) with a resolution of 0.01 mm, making it suitable for quality control, machine tool positioning, and inspection tasks where tight tolerances are required. The scale includes data output capability, allowing measurement readings to be transmitted to external data collection systems or digital readouts. It is powered by an SR44 battery. Installation and operation are handled by metrology technicians, machinists, and precision measurement professionals.

The 572-601 is used in horizontal mounting configurations on machine tools, surface plates, inspection fixtures, and coordinate measuring setups. Its data output function supports integration with statistical process control systems and digital measurement displays. The scale is suited for both shop-floor and lab environments where repeatable, electronic linear measurement is required.

Key Features

• Accuracy of 0.001 inches (0.03 mm) for high-precision linear measurement
• Resolution of 0.01 mm for fine incremental readings
• Data output capability for connection to external readouts or SPC systems
• Horizontal scale orientation for standard machine and fixture mounting
• Powered by SR44 battery for straightforward field replacement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style horizontal electronic linear scale for use with compatible digital readout systems and machine tool fixtures that accept standard linear scale data output connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or metrology technician. Power down the host machine or measurement system before mounting or connecting the scale. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat to maintain measurement accuracy. Follow the machine tool or readout manufacturer guidelines for data output wiring and signal compatibility.
