Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Mitutoyo ABSOLUTE Digimatic Caliper different from ordinary digital calipers?
The ABSOLUTE Digimatic Caliper uses Mitutoyo's ABS encoder technology, which remembers the slider position even when powered off. Unlike conventional digital calipers, it does not require re-zeroing every time you turn it on.
What is the ABSOLUTE (ABS) encoder?
The ABS encoder continuously tracks the caliper's position, allowing it to retain its measurement reference even after power is turned off. This eliminates origin-setting errors and improves reliability during everyday use.
Do I need to reset the caliper every time I turn it on?
No. One of the biggest advantages of Mitutoyo's ABSOLUTE system is that the caliper remembers its position, so you can start measuring immediately after powering it on.
Can the caliper measure in both inches and millimeters?
Yes. Inch/Metric models allow you to switch instantly between inches and millimeters with the push of a button. Metric-only versions are also available.
What types of measurements can it perform?
The caliper provides four-way measurement capabilities:
- Outside measurements
- Inside measurements
- Depth measurements
- Step measurements
This makes it suitable for machining, woodworking, automotive work, engineering, and general precision measurement
Is the Mitutoyo ABSOLUTE Digimatic Caliper accurate?
Yes. Mitutoyo calipers are widely regarded as industry-standard precision instruments and are trusted by machinists, engineers, inspectors, and manufacturers worldwide. The hardened stainless steel construction and ABS measuring system help maintain consistent, repeatable measurements.
How long does the battery last?
Battery life varies by model, but many ABSOLUTE Digimatic Calipers provide approximately 3.5 to 5 years of normal use from a single SR44 battery.
Can I move the slider quickly without affecting accuracy?
Yes. The ABSOLUTE encoder eliminates overspeed errors, allowing accurate readings even when the slider is moved rapidly.
Is the display easy to read?
Yes. The caliper features a large LCD display with 9 mm character height, making measurements easy to read in workshop and production environments.
Is this suitable for professional use?
Absolutely. Mitutoyo ABSOLUTE Digimatic Calipers are used worldwide in machining, manufacturing, quality control, engineering, automotive, aerospace, and inspection applications.
