King Nebuchadnezzar II was the inventor of the screw. He is also credited with the building of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
The instrument is called a screw gauge, or more often a micrometer, because it uses a screw to amplify a very small movement so that it can easily be read. The heart of the screw gauge is a very accurately ground thread, usually of 0.5mm pitch, so that the axial movement of the screw corresponds to a much larger movement of a barrel which carries a scale. The instrument can be difficult to read because two readings have to be added, one measuring to 0.5mm the linear motion of the screw, and the other on the barrel giving the 1/100 ths. To some extent this instrument has been superseded by the electronic digital version, which does not incorporate a screw thread. A different gauge, called a thread gauge, comprises a set of metal blades with serrated edges which can be used to identify different screw threads by matching the right blade to the thread by trial and error.

The first screw press was invented by the Romans, sometime in the first century AD. The exact date and the inventor are not known.
A rain gauge is a device which measures liquid precipitation over a period of time. It was invented by Prince Munjong and King Sejong the Great of Korea in 1441.
the inventor of micrometer screw gauge is William Gascoigne.
Our laboratory screw gauge has a pitch of 1 millimeter.
Archytas of Tarentum, he was a philosopher and inventor much like Archimedes.
The pitch of a screw gauge refers to the distance traveled by the spindle per revolution. The least count of a screw gauge is calculated using the formula least count = pitch / total number of divisions on the circular scale. It represents the smallest measurement that can be read on the screw gauge.
No, a zero error in a screw gauge indicates that the initial reading is not starting from zero. So, 47mm cannot be a zero error unless the screw gauge is not calibrated correctly.
A micrometer (or micrometer screw gauge) measures the volume of a screw.
The screw gauge is commonly called a micrometer screw gauge because it is a precise measuring instrument that utilizes a calibrated screw for accurately measuring small dimensions with high accuracy, typically up to 0.01 mm or even smaller. The term "micrometer" signifies its ability to measure very small distances, often in micrometers (1 micrometer = 0.001 mm).
Ratchets are used to prevent extra pressure on the screw in the screw gauge.

The smallest divisions on the main scale of a screw gauge are typically 0.5 mm.
what does a standard thread gauge measure
A screw gauge works on the principle of screw. This screw principle helps to convert smaller distances into larger ones by measuring the rotation of the screw. It amplifies the smaller dimensions and this converts into larger ones. When we rotate the screw, there's a linear movement of the main scale.
