Where Innovation Meets Imagination
Internal logistics is an indispensable part of the supply chain, especially in large manufacturing enterprises.
However, the tasks involved can also be quite repetitive. Humans can easily do such tasks, but that’s neither cost-effective nor efficient.
Why waste employee resources doing mundane and repetitive tasks when they can be automated? [Read more…] about Motor Controllers Used in Autonomous Mobile Robots
Since its inception, the iPhone has become an all-rounded gadget, age-appropriate, and an important tool for home use and office work. It helps to make a lot of tasks easy and manageable.
With an iPhone, you’ll have fewer security breaches as it has an extra added layer of security, it’s consistent, and can be integrated across various platforms.
However, having a faulty or problematic iPhone can be a pain in the neck and can cause inconveniences, especially if it is your office planning tool or an everyday gadget you use. [Read more…] about What to Do When Your iPhone is Causing More Problems Than it Should
Height gauges can be used to determine an object or workpiece’s height with extremely high accuracy and precision.
These precision measuring instruments also provide marked locations on an item relative to one reference plane for subsequent use.
Center-line distances, internal/external diameters, and step heights are some of the different measuring tasks that can be carried out by high-specification digital height gauges.
They claim consistency of ±0.0001 inch and can be extremely precise up to 0.001 inch. Of course, the consistency and precision of such instruments still depend on their overall quality, so it’s essential only to source one from websites of reliable manufacturers, such as eleymet.com.
Read on to learn more about a digital height gauge.
What’s In A Digital Height Gauge?
High-quality, hardened stainless steel is what makes the body of a digital height gauge. To ensure the instrument’s rigidity and stability, a digital height gauge comprises a solid cast iron base.
It also has a beam that extends from the base up, and includes a printed scale in metric and imperial format.
The metric scale usually ranges from zero to 300 millimeters, while the imperial scales range from zero to 12 inches. In some digital height gauges, metric and digital scales can even measure up to 2000 mm or 80 in.
The beam also has an electronic measuring slider, which comes with the Power ON/OFF, HOLD, TOL, SET, MM/INCH, ON/OFF/ZERO, and ABS buttons.
On one of the jaws, the slider also comes with a carbide scriber tip. Along the scale, the attached scriber, together with the slider, can slide up and down and be locked in place.
To be locked in place with the help of a second locking screw, a fine-tune wheel is used to make the final adjustment. Sending data to a printer or computer via a special cable is also possible through a data output port.
Uses Of A Digital Height Gauge
Electronic height gauges can perform several measurement types. They’re usually used in quality control applications of the manufacturing industry for the following tasks:
Preparing A Digital Height Gauge
The process of using a digital height gauge to take measurements is highlighted below:
The first step is making sure that the surface on which the instrument is to be set up is free from dirt and smooth.
Of course, cleaning the work area is a must, just like using any other equipment:
How To Take The Measurements
The actual measuring process can be started once the cleaning and preparation are done. Here are the steps to do it correctly:
The surface of working the platform usually becomes the point of measurement. Make the platform surface and the measuring jaw gently touch with a measuring force of about three to five Newton. Also, make sure that the LCD shows a value of zero. To make it zero, press the ON/OFF/ZERO button.
Adjust the movable jaw to its nearest inch or centimeter by holding the rod against the surface plate.
Check the large LCD screen to get the reading.
Taking Caution When Using The Digital Height Gauge
Lift the base using a block when measuring an object that’s beyond the height gauge’s range. That way, the surface of the object or block becomes the starting point, and the platform surface becomes the zero point.
Preset the block’s height if it’s the starting point (a more accurate measurement is needed to measure the height).
Preset the height of the surface when the measured object’s surface is the starting point.
Final Notes
After the measurement, take off the jaws so that they can be cleaned and dried with a cloth that’s soaked with cleaning oil. You can use a clean, dry cloth before storing the instrument in the fit case.
During storage or while in use, it’s important to maintain the temperature between five to 40 degrees Celsius. The protective sticker shouldn’t be in contact with any hydrous liquid.
Finally, prevent damage to the electronics, such as an electrical circuit overload, by never applying voltage or engraving with an electric pen any part of the depth gauge.

It wasn’t all that long ago that we thought Doc Brown powering his DeLorean with banana peels and apple cores was the stuff of science fiction.
And while we haven’t quite gone the way of biofuel, the best electric cars on the market today show that the future is a lot closer than we thought.
We have already moved away from simple hybridization towards vehicles that run on electrons alone, but plug-and-play cars are just a stepping stone on the way to the future. [Read more…] about The EV market continues to grow at an electrifying rate
Aliexpress is one of the most popular sites people use to start their dropshipping business. Their products are shipped worldwide to over 200 countries and regions, and their site available in five languages.
However, being such a popular site comes with drawbacks. One drawback is that it is hard to find which products are actually good-quality items instead of cheap bootlegs that will break within a week.
This makes it hard for new entrepreneurs to find products that their customers will love. And selling low-quality products leads to low reviews, which can translate to fewer clients. [Read more…] about How to Find High-Quality Products on Aliexpress

Since the 1980s, 3D Printing has become more and more common in the industry. Also known as additive manufacturing, it is basically the process of putting together a three-dimensional object from a computer-generated CAD or 3D model.
Multiple computer-controlled processes are involved. Among the most commonly observed is the layer-by-layer joining of materials and eventual solidification.
3D printing offers a lot of advantages. Among the most frequently cited benefit is its ability to expedite production. [Read more…] about Common 3D Printing Issues (and How to Address Them)
