Inspection Instrument for Dial Indicator
Comparison measuring instruments which ensure high quality, high accuracy and reliability.

i-Checker
SERIES 170

An inspection certificate is supplied as standard.
Refer to page IX for details.

The i-Checker is specially designed to
calibrate dial indicators, dial test indicators,
and other electronic comparison gage heads
with a stroke of up to 100mm (4").
•t±(0.2+L/100)µm indication accuracy.
•tDirectly inspects an indicator with a
stroke of up to 100mm (4"). The dial
test indicator, bore gage and lever-type
inductive head can be inspected with
optional accessories.

•tAdjustment of the measurement position
is very easily accomplished because of
semi-automatic measurement and fully
automatic measurement functions.
•tCreates and prints out a simple inspection
certificate.
•tSaves inspection results as a CSV file for
analysis by software.

*t Automatic measurement requires the indicator's connection cable.
Additionally some form of indicator, along with a connecting machine (the
optional accessory for indicator as a Digimatic power-supply unit on EF
counter) will be needed.

Functions
Inspect your analog indicator semi-automatically!
The pointer of the analog indicator is positioned just
before the measuring point automatically via Mitutoyo’s
Semi-automatic Measurement function. After that,
inspection begins simply by adjusting the pointer position
with the jog-dial. Because of this
function, measurement time is reduced and user fatigue is practically
eliminated. Additionally all functions
necessary for inspection are combined in the control box so that the
operator need not rely on excessive
eye movement to adjust the pointer.
Automatic
transfer

1. Press of data button
Inputs the current position data and
moves spindle just before the next
measurement position automatically.

Automatic
transfer

Note: It is possible to specify the scale
graduation increment so that spindle
movement and data transfer are
performed automatically.

Fully automatic inspection of digital indicator
The Automatic Measurement
function, in tandem with a digital
indicator makes the spindle move so
that measurement data is acquired
automatically. Therefore, manual adjustment to the measurement position is unnecessary and the efficiency
of every inspection is enhanced.

*tTo denote your AC power cable add the following suffixes to the order No.: A t
t for UL/CSA, D for CEE, E for BS, K for EK, No suffix is required for JIS/100V
*tCalibration certificate and traceability system chart are attached as atandard.

It is possible to create, edit and print out your own inspection certificate. Furthermore, that data can be saved as a
CSV file.
