I have just bought a second hand Trimos height gauge/micrometer. It is one of the wholly mechanical models, 1 division = 2 microns. It has been out of calibration for a few years, but it appears to have had careful use. Having checked it as well as I can using slip gauges (gauge blocks) I suspect it needs adjustment. I don't know how to do this and don't have good enough equipment to try.
1) How costly is recalibration likely to be? I am in UK, but local US dollar prices would be useful for comparison.
2) I assume that it is possible to bring these height micrometers back to original calibration - how is this done and what should I look for in a supplier to do this?
Thanks-
