Mitutoyo Deutschland GmbH now a Member of WorldSkills Germany e.V.

Mitutoyo's successful 500 series of ABSOLUTE Digimatic standard calipers is now optimised with a new generation of calipers using an electromagnetic inductive AOS (Advanced Onsite Sensor) measuring process. The advanced AOS technology facilitates use in a harsher work environment: The read-out signal is not affected by residues - such as dirt or moisture - on the scales.

Of course, the new AOS calipers are also equipped as standard with an ABSOLUTE scale. The accuracy (without quantisation errors) is ± 0.02 millimetres. Particularly high-quality guide surfaces with an opti-mised surface roughness provide for extremely smooth movement of the calipers.

The battery life of these devices is 3.5 years (18,000 hours) - an outstanding value for digital calipers. 

The ABS AOS series 500 calipers are on offer with measuring ranges of 100, 150 and 200 millimetres. The instruments are available both with and without a data output and drive roller, as well as carbide-tipped measuring surfaces for internal or external measurment or an additional depth gauge.
