This modestly priced mechanical revolution counter provides a convenient digital readout of either 0.01" or 0.1 mm. Read on ... or I need higher resolution than this..or I just want to buy the counter.

Typical uses for this optional attachment are:
-with Screw Drive UniSlides for 0.01" resolution. Or when you just need a reference number for an absolute and precise location.
-with Graduated Knob Models when the linear scale is obscured by the payload or way covers or the unit is mounted upside down or on units longer than 1 meter (the limit of our scales). In those instances, the you read the counter and then the engraved knob for the last significant digit. Cost is $89


Zero position is at the counter end of the UniSlide and is not re-settable.

Photo 2: Counter increments every 1/10 revolution, and reads correctly on all Screw Drive or Graduated Knob UniSlide models equipped with 10 pitch (code W1 and P10) or 1 mm (K1 and Q1) lead screws. It can be used with other pitch screws but you with have to multiply or divide depending on the screw pitch. Let me select a positioner size.

When used with Graduated Knob UniSlides, eliminate the need to read the scale to determine position.
