(Mitutoyo America Corp.: Aurora, IL) -- Mitutoyo America Corp., a leading manufacturer of precision metrology instruments and solutions, announces new versions of the IDC, IDF, and IDS series of Digimatic Indicators and products built around these indicators, such as depth and thickness gauges.

IDC and IDF series improvements and changes

The IDC and IDF series Digimatic Indicators have new designs and functions. Improvements include: higher resolutions down to 20 μin./.5 μm, a built-in calibration date warning, larger LCD and “analog” bar, and new S1 output (bidirectional communication) that allows settings to be changed through the new USB ITPak 3.0 software (free and paid versions).

All models with 0.5 in./12.7 mm range will now have a metric (M2.5x0.45) stop screw (screw under dust cap). The contact points will remain the same: AGD models = 4-48 UNF contact point, ISO/JIS models = M2.5x0.45 contact point. The tapered, tapped hole for lifting cables has been removed.
