Are digital calipers more accurate?
Digital calipers can take highly accurate measurements (to 0.0005 inch) of an object’s inside diameter, outside diameter, and depth. Digital calipers can automatically convert between standard and metric measurement systems, have an easy-to-read digital display, and offer a higher level of accuracy than analog sets.
What is MSD in vernier caliper?
One main scale division (MSD) is the distance between two successive marks on the main scale. It is given in the figure 1 that 1 MSD is equal to 1 mm. One Vernier scale division (VSD) is the distance between two successive marks on the Vernier scale. It is given that 10 VSD = 9 MSD.
What is CVD vernier caliper?
