TMI Büchel Digital Micrometer for Corrugated and other Thick Materials 49-87

Brought to you by TMI Büchel ., our world-leading physical properties testing brand, this digital micrometer for thick materials measures and stores multiple thickness readings, providing a cross machine profile. Designed for applications across the Paper and Pulp industry, the 49-87 helps manufacturers and quality control teams measure thicker materials such as corrugated and paperboard and monitor thickness variation across multiple readings.

What is a digital micrometer?

When you want to measure the thickness of a range of materials you’ll need a digital micrometer. Some digital micrometers are controlled remotely through a computer terminal, others are used in conjunction with other testing equipment. Micrometers can be used for continuous or single testing and statistical analysis. 

Multi-industry digital micrometer capability

Our range of electronic micrometers use the deadweight micrometer principle for accuracy and repeatability. 

The Digital Micrometer 49-87 can be configured to meet a variety of international specifications. We make digital micrometers for all types of material testing from corrugated, paper board, and tissue paper through to plastic film, nonwovens and textiles. This allows manufacturers across Paper and Pulp, Flexible Packaging, and Plastics and Polymers to verify material callipers against specification, monitor thickness variation and maintain consistency across production batches.

A robust and reliable digital micrometer for thick materials

The 49-87 digital micrometer caliper has a heavy, solid frame. This protects the unit and houses the reflective linear encoder and associated circuitry. 

Our electronic micrometers are built to last, so we constructed the lower anvil and movable pressure foot from lapped, solid stainless steel.  

A digital micrometer to remember!

You can store up to 100 readings in our digital micrometer. These accurate readings can be easily analyzed including high, low, average and standard deviation for each series of tests. This allows quality teams to quantify thickness variation across repeated measurements, compare results against specified tolerances and identify material inconsistencies before they affect downstream processing or finished product performance.

Digital micrometer results, displayed clearly

Our electronic micrometers combine a precision digital linear encoder measuring system with an ultra-clear, easy-to-read. You can see a real time specimen thickness reading on the digital readout.

Easy export digital micrometer testing

You can save your data permanently through our optional GraphMaster PC-based software or print it out for hard copy storage. This supports traceable thickness testing by giving quality teams a permanent record of measurement data for statistical analysis, batch comparison and verification against specified caliper tolerances.

Quality digital micrometer testing – as standard!

You can rely on the Digital Micrometer 49-87 to give you highly accurate results to the most stringent of international standards, including ISO 3034. 

Our wider electronic micrometer portfolio  

Across the IP portfolio we make a wide range of digital micrometers and accessories. Also from TMI Büchel , there’s the Digital Micrometer 49-86 which is made for the thinnest of samples. Or the Digital Micrometer 49-85, which is designed for paper. Another option we offer is the Digital Micrometer 49-56, which is designed for thickness measurements.
