REALISATION OF THE MEASUREMENT
The MDM is an ergonomically designed hand-held instrument for conducting precise
and quick measurements. Besides, the whole measuring range is always easily
available since the measuring feeler always returns to an open position by spring
force. The measuring feeler scans the test material during the measuring process.
Zero the gauge at any point along the measuring range by pressing the “0” key. By
this, you are able to detect differences to set tolerances easily.
