ZERO SETTER 0.0010MM ACC. MAGNETIC BASE

How It Works:

1. Setup: Place the zero setter on the machine table or near the workpiece, with the magnetic base holding it in position.
2. Tool Height Setting: Bring the cutting tool or spindle down until it just contacts the zero setter’s contact surface. As the tool touches, the dial indicator will move, showing the tool height on the dial face.
3. Zeroing: Adjust the dial to set a zero point as a reference. This zero can be used for measuring other positions relative to the set point.
4. Measurement: Read the dial to measure and adjust tool heights, ensuring the tool is set to the correct depth before starting the machining operation.

Key Features:

• Dial Indicator: The zero setter includes a dial indicator with a large, easy-to-read dial face, usually with a measurement range of 50mm (or 2 inches) and ±10µm accuracy. The dial provides highly precise readings, with graduations as fine as 0.01mm, enabling operators to achieve accurate tool height settings.
• Magnetic Base: The tool is equipped with a magnetic base, allowing it to be securely attached to the machine table or other ferrous surfaces. This base stabilizes the zero setter during use, ensuring accurate and consistent measurements.
• Zero Position Setting: The dial indicator can be set to a zero position, which acts as a reference point for measuring tool height or depth. By zeroing the indicator, machinists can consistently return to the same position, reducing setup time and improving accuracy.
• Spring-Loaded Contact Surface: The zero setter has a spring-loaded contact surface that compresses when the tool touches the workpiece or machine spindle. This compression allows for a controlled and repeatable measurement, minimizing the risk of damaging delicate tools or work surfaces.
