A comparator, widely used in industries, scientific research, medicine, and other fields, is an instrument used to measure, analyze, and compare parameters between different objects.

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; The optical comparator uses an optical micrometer as an amplification indicator component, and there are three common types: vertical, horizontal, and shadow screen; Electrical comparators often use inductive or capacitive micrometers as amplification and indicator components.
