They feature a numeric display and keyboard. DRO systems are used with milling and boring machines, lathes and surface grinders.

Digital Readouts (DRO’s) utilize linear scales mounted to the cross-slide and carriage axis of the lathe. The scale reads position independent of the lead screw and shows the true tool position, regardless of mechanical wear and backlash.

LCD displays are much like a computer screen, and can graphically draw functions in color, allowing you to see what you programmed, before you cut it.

Things to consider when buying a DRO: In general, there are two main factors to consider when buying a DRO. First is scale type, and second, is display type.
