Mitutoyo ZERO CERA Blocks – Ceramic Gauge Blocks with low Thermal Expansion

Mitutoyo ZERO CERA Blocks – Ceramic Gauge Blocks with low Thermal Expansion

Product Information

• Manufacturer: Mitutoyo
• These are ultra-low expansion ceramic gauge blocks

Product Description Mitutoyo ZERO CERA Blocks

The ZERO CERA Blocks offer you the following benefits:

• Ultra-low thermal expansion: Thermal expansion at 20 ±1°C is less than 1/500 that of steel. ZERO CERA BLOCK is a highly stable length standard suitable for calibrating the temperature compensation of machine tools and measuring instruments in a non-20˚C environment. ZERO CERA BLOCK can also improve calibration work efficiency by eliminating the need for temperature compensation leaving only the thermally induced dimensional change of the calibration target to be considered.

• Excellent long-term stability: Unlike glass material, the ceramic material used for ZERO CERA BLOCK has a poreless structure without an amorphous state and is more stable than other low-thermal expansion materials. This provides excellent long-term stability, both for the length and the (extremely small) coefficient of thermal expansion.
• You will find them light and easy to handle: The rigidity and flexural strength is 50% better than glass and the low specific gravity (1/3 that of steel) make ZERO CERA BLOCK easy to handle. The only care needed to prevent damage is to avoid dropping or knocking the blocks.
• They are rust-free.
• They are magnetization-free.

Mitutoyo technology enhances gage block quality

■ World-class calibration capability
Mitutoyo America Corporation’s calibration laboratory utilizes state-of-the-art technology to calibrate virtually any metrology tool. A2LA accredited (Certificate #750-01) to ISO/ IEC 17025 for testing and calibration labs, this facility employs professional calibration technicians to provide NIST-traceable accuracy certification, as well as calibration services for Mitutoyo and other manufacturer’s gages and gage blocks.

■ Interferometric measurement technology for coefficient of thermal expansion (patent pending)

• Mitutoyo has developed a highly accurate system for measuring the coefficient of thermal expansion for gage blocks. In this system, advanced temperature- and interferometric measurement technology combine to measure, simultaneously, dimensional change at each end of a gage block. This system provides Mitutoyo with the capability to measure coefficients of thermal expansion within a small uncertainty value(0.035 ×10-6/K (k=2)).
• Gage blocks are available whose coefficient of thermal expansion has been measured. These are otherwise standard gage blocks supplied with individual calibration certificates specifying the actual coefficient of thermal expansion.
