  • Shooting Star BT-3 3-axis digital position readout
  • Includes the digital display unit, 3 scales, and mounting hardware
  • Resolution: 0.0005", accuracy: 0.001"
  • The keypad is a splash-proof membrane with tactile keys in a sturdy metal enclosure

Shooting Star BT-3 3-axis digital position readout functions include: Inch/mm display, reversible count direction (change the direction in which the count goes up), automatic centering (find the center of a workpiece or hole by touching off two sides), two sets of coordinates (good for placing hole patterns, making slots and such), enter coordinates (you can enter the values for the current location), bolt circle and bolt line calculators (quickly create a pattern of holes), tool offsets (remember the setting for various lathe tools), and preset positions (quickly return to positions you have saved).

This DRO uses a precision rack and anti-backlash pinion, with an optical encoder on the pinion.

This DRO includes one 48" scale and two 16" scales. The scales are easily shortened to suit your machine. It will fit on the mini mill with a power feed installed.
