A comparator is an instrument used to measure, analyze, and compare parameters between different objects and is widely used in industries, scientific research, medicine, and other fields. According to their different working principles, comparators can usually be divided into three categories: mechanical comparators, optical comparators, and electrical comparators. A mechanical comparator uses mechanical indicators such as a dial gauge/micrometer, lever gear micrometer, or torsion spring micrometer as amplification and indication components; Optical comparators use optical micrometers as amplification and indicator components, commonly available in three types: vertical, horizontal, and shadow screen; Electrical comparators often use inductive or capacitive micrometers as amplification and indication components.

With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous expansion of applications, the comparator market is showing a growing trend.
