Description
The 8400K Digital Optical Micrometer is a unique coating and surface inspection tool that offers speed, precision, and repeatability. Scratch depth measurement used to be an art. With the 8400K, you can now do it in less than 20 seconds. This time-saving tool was designed specifically for measuring the width of scratches and vertical depth of surface features. "Visual inspection" is standard for any component with scratch or corrosion pit damage, and maximum allowances are often specified. Other methods of visual inspection are time consuming and inconclusive.
The 8400K lets you measure the width of scratches using the reticle eyepiece and vertical depth of surface features, usually to evaluate the severity of mechanical damage such as scratches, corrosion, pits or blemishes difficult to observe by other methods. Accurate measurement is essential to determine whether a part should be kept in service, and the 8400K brings remarkable precision and integrity to this judgment process.
The 8400K is designed for use in the field. The sealed, non-magnetic case is dustproof and shock-resistant to withstand everyday shop use.
Inspection for Scratches, Corrosion & Wear
Measure scratches with accuracy and repeatability. Depth allowances are often specified, but proper measurement is needed to determine if a part should be kept in service. The 8400K performs this task quickly and easily, where other methods are time consuming and inconclusive.
The 8400K measures the distance between two points, or regions of interest (ROI). Clear, accurate results are produced in three easy steps:

Options
The 8400K Micrometer can download data to a small printer or to your PC. These capabilities are important for keeping documentation and traceability procedures, and for monitoring trends.
DP-1HS Digimatic Mini-Processor & Printer
This is the most popular 8400K option. A one-meter cable connects the 8400K to this instrument, which is capable of printing, storing and processing measurement data. Tolerance judgments, statistical results and histograms may be printed. When limits are set, up/down arrows appear for exceeded limits. There are several types of printouts to choose from. Readings can either be printed in the order they are taken, or plotted according to their magnitude in a number of statistical chart formats.

Input Tool for Personal Computers
Two cables allow data to be sent to a spreadsheet program such as Excel. Measurements are entered with just one touch of a data button. No battery or AC power is needed, and laptops can be used. The cables have small interface boxes in the middle. One cable connects via the keyboard input port (keyboard is disabled), the other through the RS-232 port.
