But even then, component aging and drift is something that is considered by serious manufacturers- Mitutoyo can probably guarantee and back it up with tests, that their design will maintain the accuracy over some time frame.
Of course it doesn't matter for most machine shop uses of calipers- but when it does, there is definitely more to it than meeting stated accuracy once.
- progre 6y agoSure, I'm not arguing for using fakes here. Mitutoyo is very respected for a good reason. I have never had one piece of Mitutoyo gear go flaky on me once. A coworker almost made us miss a flight because he refused to hand his Mitutoyo calipers over to security at the check. I'm saying that even if it's a Mitutoyo it has to be calibrated every year.
