Width measurements are a fundamental component for industrial production and is essential to guarantee the quality of the final product. For this purpose, there are a series of highly technological measuring instruments that allow you to obtain precise and reliable data.
Among these, i vernier calipers they represent one of the most commonly used tools. Thanks to their precision and reliability, they are essential for precisely measuring widths and thicknesses of various parts of a particular mechanical.
Other width measuring instruments that are often used in the industrial sector are: LASER distance meters and optical velocimeters. These instruments allow you to carry out remote measurements, without the need to touch the component to be measured and therefore reducing the risk of errors related to wear of the instruments themselves. Furthermore, the data collected by these tools is processed extremely quickly, allowing you to carry out real-time measurements.
Finally, with the advent of the so-called "industry 4.0", technology is also revolutionizing the way in which width measurements are carried out. Thanks to connectivity and digitalisation, measurement data can be transmitted in real time to a central system, allowing you to constantly monitor the health of your machines and intervene promptly in the event of malfunctions.

Some applications of width measurement products
Technical insight
In the industrial field, width measurements are an essential step both for the production of a product and for its verification. For this reason, there are numerous measuring tools specifically designed to make the measuring process as precise as possible.
Width measurements with vernier calipers
Vernier calipers are a commonly used measuring tool for measure the width of objects. It is an instrument made up of two metal noses, one of which is equipped with a movable cursor. The vernier caliper is used to measure the distance between two points, thanks to a graduated scale or a digital instrument that is positioned on the mobile part of the instrument.
Width measurements with industrial LASER distance meters
Industrial LASER distance meters are a sophisticated and precise instrument that uses a LASER beam to measure the distance between two points. This is an instrument used in particular for width measurements in large spaces or in the presence of obstacles. This tool allows you to easily detect the defects of an object precisely and effectively.
Width measurements with contact micrometers
Contact micrometers are another commonly used measuring instrument in the industrial field. It is an instrument consisting of a mobile probe and a fixed base, used to measure the distance between two points. Due to its precision, the contact micrometer is a useful tool for both width measurements and other tasks requiring high precision.
Width measurements with digital comparators
Another measuring instrument used for width measurements are digital comparators, which allow very small distances to be measured. It is an instrument used for precision measurements, capable of detecting even minimal differences in width. The digital comparator uses a digital scale to provide an accurate reading of the sample width.
Width measurements with laser micrometers
Laser micrometers use a LASER beam to measure the width of an object, offering high precision. It is an instrument suitable for non-contact width measurements of objects using the principle of shadow projection. These instruments allow repeatable and precise measurements of widths of various dimensions.
Width measurements with LVDT linear probes
LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) linear probes are measuring instruments used for width measurements. It is an instrument consisting of an electromagnetic induction transducer, which allows measurements of the width of a sample by modifying the magnetic field flux. These instruments are used for precision measurements in industries, such as aeronautical and aerospace engineering.
