At the time, the philosophy of Yehan Numata, the founder, was not only to build and sell high-quality micrometers, but also to build them in quantities that made them inexpensive enough that any manufacturing firm could afford to buy them. As electronics became more and more prevalent in industry, Mitutoyo adapted their product line and began to produce digital measuring tools. Soon Mitutoyo was offering more complex and sensitive instruments, like coordinate measuring machines with accuracies in the sub-micrometer range.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-46 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sj-210.png\" alt=\"Mitutoyo Surftest SJ-210 Portable Surface Roughness Tester - Standard Drive Unit\" width=\"250\" height=\"229\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Over the last eight decades, Mitutoyo has fulfilled and expanded upon its stated goal to provide the best quality and value in metrological instruments.
