How to Read Vernier Caliper - FullyInstrumented In this post, we will be discussing how to read vernier caliper that has those kinds of graduation systems Whether it is in mm (millimeter) or inch, we will be covering it here Through this post, you’ll know the graduation variation systems that we mean
EXP. (1) Reading a Vernier Caliper - Tishk International University Most vernier calipers have both metric and English scales; make sure that you read the correct scale The main metric scale (D) is marked in increments of 1 mm; the sliding scale (E) has numbers marking 0 1 mm increments, and small lines marked in 0 02 mm increments
The Vernier Caliper - Manual Version EXAMPLE 1: The external measurement (diameter) of a round section piece of steel is measured using a vernier caliper, metric scale A The main metric scale is read first and this shows that there are 13 whole divisions before the 0 on the hundredths scale Therefore, the first number is 13 B The’ hundredths of mm’ scale is then read
How to Read Measurements on a Vernier Caliper - Gauthmath For an imperial Vernier caliper, the process is similar but involves inches Suppose you observe the following: The main scale reading just before the zero mark on the Vernier scale is 1 inch The 5th line on the Vernier scale aligns perfectly with a line on the main scale
