​Digital Read Outs

We have been through them ALL and have some great input.  The import option makes some sense and Ditron is a great one. It can be cost effective for larger applications when a name brand would be pricey. However, the hardware is very cheaply made and the install kits are insufficient. Acurite is very nice but in my opinion over priced. also way to complicated software.  However the software can be good for shops that want different users to have differing levels of access. Newall is a great product but I still think they are over priced. to be fair I have never given there products a fair shot. Maybe someday...

I feel like Mititoyo and Fagor are the best options for a high quality lower cost option.  I have chosen Fagor for my in house readout because I feel like the kits that are sold with the systems are super easy to install and even there universal kits have all the right hardware. Fagor has an analog version and a LCD version. Here is a link to Fagor for reference. Check out there "Pro Kits"
