Hi all, I need some help. I am designing a cutting fixture & I need a slide that can travel 32" and has a digital read-out in inches.
I can get a metric one form a company called Igus, but they don't do in imperial one, it doesn't need to be super accurate as it is used with a cut-off saw.
I have tried using Google but have not found one.

Thanks in advance

Slide with readout options

Try contacting ProScale www.proscale.com - they have a slide with an integrated digital readout system - their Model 580. Or, for a cutoff saw, you might want to use their stop and fence turnkey systems: ProStop or Digi-Stop - depends on your exact requirements. Made in USA, shows decimal inches, fractional inches, and metric measurements, all battery powered.

Thanks
That looks just what I need.

 

You can often find digital readouts in the used equipment world. Machine tools that are decommissioned for mechanical reasons may have fully functional readouts on them.

 

Thanks all
I used proscale for the solution.

 

Great!
