Infinity corrected objectiveformula

The main difference of this configuration is that it has ten lines parallel to the ‘baseline’ engraved in the sheath. Another difference is in the position of the middle marks – Figure 1

In the centesimal micrometer, the resolution was obtained by dividing the thread pitch of the micrometreic fuse by the number of divisions of the thimble (Resolution = thread pitch of the micrometric fuse / number of the thimble divisions) or Tesolution = 0.5mm / 50 = 0.01mm.

This text assumes that you are familiar with the nomenclature of the components of the Micrometer <- if necessary, remember by clicking here and with the reading of ruler or line gauge, in millimeter <- remember by clicking here.

On this thousandth micrometer, the smallest difference between indications is divided by ten by a vernier engraved in the shealth. This way, the resolution will be: Resolution = 0.01mm / 10 = 0.001mm.

hi Agustin, in millimeters, there is no micrometer for this resolution, the millimeter is twenty-five times smaller than the inch, 0.001 mm (one thousandth of a millimeter) for mechanics is enough.

This text will exclusively address the interpretation of the milesimal part of the micrometer. If you are not yet versed in the use, reading, and interpretation of the centesimal part of the micrometer, interact with this page before proceeding.
