Digital caliper M217.024 — 0–500 mm, hardened stainless steel, fine adjustment (Metav IndustryLine)

The Digital caliper M217.024 is a workshop-grade 0–500 mm measuring instrument with knife-type jaws and cross points, designed for accurate positioning and versatile measurement tasks in machine and metalwork environments

• 0–500 mm measurement range
• 0.01 mm digital resolution
• Hardened stainless steel construction
• Fine adjustment for exact positioning

Precision that speeds up quality checks and reduces rework

The caliper combines a 0.01 mm digital readout with a factory tolerance of 0.05 mm, providing a clear, verifiable basis for everyday inspection and set-up tasks. The high-contrast display and quick mm/inch conversion reduce cycle times during incoming inspection or in-process checks; the 0.01 mm resolution supports standard workshop quality control while the Werksnorm 0.05 mm indicates the expected reproducibility under normal workshop conditions. This makes the instrument an efficient tool for production environments where fast, traceable measurements matter.

Robust build and jaw geometry for varied profiles

Constructed from hardened stainless steel, the slide and jaws are designed for long-term durability in demanding shop conditions. The combination of knife-type jaws and cross points (45 mm) provides practical versatility: the knife geometry is useful when measuring thin or profiled edges, while the cross points assist with small recesses and grooves. The integrated fine adjustment mechanism allows controlled, reproducible closing of the jaws, lowering the risk of measurement error caused by overshoot and enabling accurate seating on delicate workpieces.

Digital functions engineered for integration and repeatability

The caliper’s display offers practical functions — mm/inch, 0/ABS, HOLD, TOL and PRESET — which simplify comparative checks, data capture and tolerance inspections at the bench. A dedicated RB 5 data output is provided for connection to data loggers or inspection software, supporting digital documentation and quality traceability. These features combine to reduce manual transcription errors and speed up inspection workflows while keeping measurement records consistent and auditable.
