Digital caliper M217.055.3 — 1000 mm range, fine adjustment (Metav IndustryLine)

A Digital caliper M217.055.3 engineered for long‑range workshop measurement and quality control, combining a 1,000 mm span with robust, hardened construction and a multifunction digital readout

• 1000 mm measuring range
• Fully hardened stainless steel
• Precise fine‑adjustment mechanism
• Digital display with mm/inch and HOLD

Long‑range measurement made dependable

A measuring span of 1000 mm places this instrument in the workshop class for large components where stiffness and reach matter. Classified in the large‑range category for calipers, the instrument offers a long jaw of 500 mm that supports stable contact over extended distances. The construction in fully hardened stainless steel reduces wear and keeps the profile straight under frequent use, which translates into fewer rejections and lower rework rates in production runs. The long‑range design bridges the gap between handheld convenience and the reach usually expected only from specialised fixtures.

Clear digital readout and process connectivity

The integrated digital display provides standard functions — on/off, mm/inch, zero/absolute, HOLD, TOL and PRESET — which speed up inline inspections and reduce manual entry errors. Resolution is 0.01 mm with the inch resolution at 0.0005 in, while a dedicated RB 5 data output enables automated logging into measurement systems or SPC stations. Powered from a 3 V supply, the readout supports repeatable transfer of measurement values and fits into modern quality workflows where traceable data and simple conversion between units are essential.

Built for reproducible workshop performance

The inclusion of a fine‑adjustment mechanism ensures controlled closing speed and repeatable contact force, improving measurement reproducibility on medium to large workpieces. The instrument is supplied to a factory standard of 0.10 mm, giving a clear baseline for acceptance in routine checks. Material selection and full hardening increase resistance to deformation, so calibration intervals are extended and service costs are reduced. For applications where repeatability across multiple operators is critical, the mechanical design reduces user‑induced variance.

Practical use in production and inspection

Designed for frequent handling in the machine shop or inspection bay, the caliper combines ergonomic handling with rugged engineering. The robust frame and guarded slide keep the scale protected during daily use, and the digital functions cut inspection time by avoiding manual conversions. Integration via RB 5 allows measured values to feed directly into quality documentation or inspection software, supporting traceability and batch reporting. Metav IndustryLine’s positioning emphasises consistent supply and industrial compatibility for medium and heavy‑duty measurement tasks.

FAQ

What measuring range does this caliper cover and how is it classified?
The M217.055.3 covers 0–1000 mm and is classified as a large‑range precision caliper suitable for sizeable components and workshop inspection tasks.

Which digital functions are available on the display?
The instrument provides on/off, mm/inch conversion, zero/absolute (0/ABS), HOLD, tolerance (TOL) checks and PRESET functionality for standardised measuring routines.

How is measurement data transferred to a PC or SPC system?
Data from the caliper can be output via the RB 5 interface, enabling direct logging into inspection software or data collectors for traceability and process control.

What material and hardness features improve longevity?
The frame is made from fully hardened stainless steel, which reduces profile wear and maintains straightness over repetitive use, extending service life and stabilising measurement results.

Is the device suitable for routine workshop inspection?
Yes; the combination of long reach, fine adjustment and digital readout makes it appropriate for frequent workshop and inspection bay use, especially where reproducible results and data capture are required.
