Accurate, yet Affordable,
DRO System from Mitutoyo
Mitutoyo's Linear Scale System tightly couples linear scale units with dedicated Digital Readout (DRO) units to offer
accurate detection and display of axial displacement for machine tools and measuring equipment. The Linear Scale
System can be configured to best meet your specific application, whether it be machining or measuring, just by
choosing a suitable combination of scale unit and display unit. Scale units have many measuring length ranges and
the display units feature remote zero setting, switchable resolution and multipurpose one-touch macro keys. The
Linear Scale System has superior ease-of-use and is reliable, both of which are features that can dramatically improve
machining accuracy and efficiency.

Ultra Precision Manufacture 11 Meters
Underground
Mitutoyo Kiyohara Plant, which is a factory exclusively for the
production of Linear Scales and other precision scales, has a complete
system for producing master scales to be used in finished products,
such as CMMs, vision measuring systems, profile projectors, and
measuring microscopes. To improve the accuracy of scales and
quality control technologies, the integral laboratory at the Kiyohara
Plant was constructed eleven meters underground. It provides

precision manufacture and evaluation of scales. Its unique design
and construction isolates the laboratory from external vibrations and
ensures minimal variations in temperature and humidity.
