MDS Data Set STANDARD

Accessory Set MDS Standard

The Accessory Set MDS Standard is a Windows-ready data-collection kit from Microtech Metrology for streamlined measurement data capture with up to three instruments.

• Ready data-collection solution for Windows
• Supports up to three instruments simultaneously
• Includes USB Dongle for simple PC reception
• Auto-connection and synchronized data reading
• Optional footswitch and DataMet buttons available

Faster data capture, reduced workflow steps

The Accessory Set MDS Standard combines a tailored Windows application with a compact USB Dongle to simplify measurement data transfer. Compared with the U-WAVE technology of Mitutoyo, Microtech’s approach removes multiple connectors and transmitters: a single dongle receives data on a PC while direct transmissions to iPhone, iPad and Android devices are made from the measuring tool itself. This reduces setup time and potential points of failure, delivering a noticeably more efficient data workflow for quality control and workshop environments.

Built for reliable, repeatable measurement acquisition

This kit includes the MDS Connection components for Windows: the MDS app, USB dongles, extension cables and — depending on the version — footswitches. The system supports automatic zero setting and autoconnection routines, so readings are synchronized and stored consistently. The set also supports optional DataMet Buttons and a footswitch for hands-free data capture, enhancing reproducibility in inspection tasks while keeping operator interaction minimal.

Consistent measuring pressure via adjustable control

A key functional advantage is the manual Measurement Force Control, which allows the operator to set the measuring pressure to suit different materials. By locking the measurement force, the system ensures that each reading is taken only when the preset pressure is reached, reducing variability and improving repeatability for serial inspections. This feature is especially valuable for delicate components or when comparing measurements across batches.

Who benefits and typical use cases

The accessory set is ideal for workshops, inspection labs and production lines that need a compact, ready-to-run data-collection solution. It is particularly suited to users who require connectivity for up to three measuring tools plus PC integration via the included dongle. The MDS 5.5 Standard app for Windows supports common workflows such as SPC logging and quick zeroing, making the kit a practical choice for routine dimension control and documentation.
