How to Test an Indicator in 4 Easy Steps
Follow these simple steps to perform an indicator calibration test:
-
Mount the Indicator: Clamp your dial gauge firmly into the tester holding bracket.
-
Set Initial Zero: Bring the micrometer spindle against the contact point and zero both dials.
-
Advance the Micrometer: Rotate the micrometer head in precise incremental steps.
-
Compare Readings: Note deviations between the micrometer displacement and the indicator dial.
