Starrett Kinemetric Engineering, Inc., a subsidiary of the L.S. Starrett Co., announces its all new HDV500 digital comparator that combines the features of a vision metrology system and an optical comparator. 

While most metrology markets are extremely challenged by the sluggish economy, the global gages market remains relatively well-positioned primarily due to its cost-effectiveness.

Since the invention of the vernier caliper in the 1850s, dimensional metrology has played a critical role in driving the manufacturing industry to its current levels of excellence.

The Galileo KineMic is an entry-level modular video-based inspection system suited for quality assurance, training, manufacturing, assembly, research and documentation.
