Are electronic measuring instruments the same as calipers?

Electronic measuring instruments are different from calipers in principle, accuracy and function.

1, the principle is different: calipers measure the length, width and height of objects through a ruler and a cursor, while electronic measuring instruments measure the size, distance, angle and other parameters of objects through electronic sensors.

2. Different accuracy: The accuracy of electronic measuring instruments is usually higher than that of calipers, which can reach 0.0 1mm or higher, while the accuracy of calipers can only reach 0.1mm..

3. Different functions: The electronic measuring instrument can carry out more measurements and calculations, such as measuring objects with special shapes such as cylinders, spheres and terrain, and automatically calculating parameters such as area and volume. Calipers can only measure basic length, width and height.
