    Linear Scales

    Increase the accuracy of your manual machine when you fit it with a linear scale. These scales have an LCD that displays exact positioning on one axis. They have zero-position memory, also known as absolute (ABS) positioning, which retains the measuring position when the scale is off. A zero-set button lets you start measuring at any point. SPC data output allows for connection to a computer or data processor.
