PROTRACTORS
MANUFACTURING ESSENTIALS
Digital Protractors and Digital Levels are digital tools used for measuring angles and slopes with high precision. They are commonly used in a variety of fields, including carpentry, construction, metalworking, and engineering.
A Digital Protractor is a handheld device that features an LCD screen and a hinged arm with a pivoting protractor head. It allows the user to measure angles with great accuracy, typically to within 0.1 degrees. Digital protractors can be used to measure both relative and absolute angles, and some models even have built-in memory functions that allow for the storage of angle measurements.

Digital Levels, on the other hand, are tools used to measure the slope or inclination of a surface. They consist of a base with a vial of liquid and a digital display that provides a numerical readout of the slope. Digital levels can be used for a variety of tasks, such as aligning equipment, setting up scaffolding, and measuring the slope of roofs and floors.
Both Digital Protractors and Digital Levels have advantages over their traditional counterparts. They are generally more accurate and precise, easier to read, and often have additional features such as memory functions and the ability to calculate angles or slopes automatically. They are also more durable and resistant to damage than traditional analog protractors and levels, making them ideal for use in tough environments.
