Search other suppliers in the following categories:
Air gages use pneumatic pressure and flow to measure or sort dimensional attributes.
Biological microscopes are used to study organisms and their vital processes.
Bore and ID gages are designed for internal diameter dimensional measurement or assessment.
Calibration standards and reference sources include any source that can provide a reference for the calibration of an instrument or comparison of a material or component.
Calipers typically use a precise slide movement for inside, outside, depth or step measurements. Some caliper types are used for comparing or transferring dimensions.
Coordinating measuring machine (CMM) probes are transducers that convert physical measurements into electrical signals, using various measuring systems within the probe structure.
Data acquisition is the digitizing and processing of multiple sensor or signal inputs for the purpose of monitoring, analyzing and/or controlling systems and processes. Signal conditioning includes the amplification, filtering, converting, and other processes required to make sensor output suitable for rereading by computer boards.
Data acquisition, SCADA and analysis software is designed to collect, record, store, present and analyze data collected from sensors and other digital devices.
Data loggers and data recorders acquire digital data from sensors and other signals. They are primarily used to store data for subsequent downloads to a host PC, but may also include real-time features such as monitors and alarms.
Depth gages are used to measure of the depth of holes, cavities, or other component features.
Digital readouts are specialized displays for position and dimension readings from inspection gages and linear scales, or rotary encoders on machine tools. 
Dimensional gages and instruments provide quantitative measurements of product or component dimensional and form attributes such as wall thickness, depth, height, length, inner diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), taper or bore.
Durometers are instruments used for measuring the indentation hardness of rubber, elastomers, plastics and foam materials.
Engineering analysis and modeling software is designed to model, analyze, and predict responses and interactions for applications such as materials, structures, chemical and biological processes, electronic system performance, etc.
Fixed gages are designed to access a specific attribute based on comparative gaging.
Gage blocks are manufactured to precise gagemaker tolerance grades for calibrating, checking, and setting fixed and comparative gages.
Hardness testers measure a material's resistance to indentation. This calculation is determined by measuring the permanent depth or projected area of the indentation.
Height gages are used for measuring the height of components or product features.
Indicators and comparators measure where the linear movement of a precision spindle or probe is amplified.
Levels are mechanical or electronic tools that measure the inclination of a surface relative to the earth's surface.
Magnifiers are inspection instruments that are used to magnify a product or part detail via a lens system.
Masters and setting gages provide dimensional standards for calibrating other gages.
Measuring microscopes are used by toolmakers for measuring the properties of tools.  These microscopes are often used for dimensional measurement with lower magnifying powers to allow for brighter, sharper images combined with a wide field of view.
Metallurgical microscopes are used for metallurgical inspection including metals, ceramics, and other materials.
Micrometers are instruments for precision dimensional gaging consisting of a ground spindle and anvil mounted in a C-shaped steel frame.  Noncontact laser micrometers are also available.
Microscopes are instruments that produce magnified images of small objects
Non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment is used to detect, inspect, and measure flaws, bond integrity, and other material conditions without permanently altering or destroying the examined part or product.
Optical and light microscopes use the visible or near-visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum to magnify images of objects.
Optical comparators are instruments that project a magnified image or profile of a part onto a screen for comparison to a standard overlay profile or scale. 
Plug and pin gauges are used to compare hole and slot dimensions or locations to specific tolerances. This product area includes go gauges and no-go gauges. 
Protractors and angle gages measure the angle between two surfaces of a part or assembly.
Ring gages are used for go / no-go assessment compared to the specified dimensional tolerances or attributes of pins, shafts, or threaded studs.
Rules are flat, graduated scales used for length measurement.  For OEM applications, digital or electronic linear scales are often used.
Sensor chips are dies incorporating semiconductor circuit elements that are used to convert changes to some physical parameter to an electrical signal.
Sensor interface and excitation IC chips are used as interfaces to sensors and other devices. The input at the interface collects data from the sensor and the output of the interface sends the data to a computer or other suitable device.
Snap gages are used in production settings where specific diametrical or thickness measurements must be repeated frequently with precision and accuracy.
Specialty or proprietary gages, instruments or gaging systems for dimensional measurement.
Specialty microscopes are designed for specific applications such as metallurgy or gemology. They use specialized techniques or technologies such as acoustics to produce magnification.
Squares are used to indicate, by visual comparison, whether two surfaces are perpendicular. Most products consist of a simple, fixed standard and a beam and blade with a mutual orientation of 90 degrees.
Styli and probes are slender, rod-shaped stems and contact tips or points used to probe surfaces in conjunction with profilometers, SPMs, CMMs, gages and dimensional scanners.
Surface metrology equipment is used to measure the surface finish and/or geometry of engineering components. Surface texture and topology characteristics include surface roughness, contour, form, waviness and defects.
Surface plates provide a precision reference surface for layout, checking, machining and gaging work.
Surface profilometers are contact or non-contact instruments used to measures surface profiles, roughness, waviness and other finish parameters.
Thickness gages are used to make precise dimensional measurements on a wide variety of coatings and materials including steel, plastic, glass, rubber, ceramics, paint, electroplated layers, enamels, etc
Thread gages are dimensional instruments for measuring and/or verifying thread size, pitch or other parameters.
Tooling plates and columns provide mounting or clamping surfaces for holding and positioning vises, clamps and workpieces during setup, manufacturing and dimensional inspection.
