Working
Finding the Least Count:
The least count is the smallest increment the dial indicator can measure, which is usually marked on the
dial itself (e.g., 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm).
Calculating the Measurement:
Step 1: Find the Zero Point: Ensure the dial indicator is set to zero before starting your measurement.
Step 2: Take the Reading: Note the number of graduations the pointer moves from the zero point.
Step 3: Multiply by Least Count: Multiply the number of graduations by the least count to get the
measurement.
Example: If the pointer moves 30 graduations and the least count is 0.001 inch, the measurement is
30 x 0.001 = 0.030 inches.

Application
1. Measuring Small Linear Displacements
Used to measure small movements or deformations in components with high accuracy.
2. Checking Surface Flatness
Helps check if a surface is perfectly flat by detecting height variations.
3. Measuring Roundness & Runout
Radial Runout: Measures deviations in rotating parts (e.g., shafts, gears).
Axial Runout: Ensures perpendicularity of a rotating surface.
4. Aligning Machine Parts
Used in machine setups to ensure components are properly aligned.
5. Measuring Thickness Variation
Used to check the thickness consistency of thin materials like metal sheets.
6. Checking Gear Backlash
Measures the gap between meshing gears for quality control.
7. Inspecting Parallelism & Perpendicularity
Ensures that two surfaces are parallel or perpendicular in precision machining.
8. Deflection Testing in Materials
Measures bending or deflection in beams and structures under load.
