To read a micrometer, first ensure the instrument is calibrated and set to zero. Place the object between the anvil and spindle, then rotate the thimble until it gently contacts the object. Read the measurement by combining the main scale reading (on the sleeve) with the thimble scale reading (where the thimble aligns with the main scale). The main scale typically measures whole millimeters or inches, while the thimble scale provides fractional measurements, usually in hundredths of a millimeter or thousandths of an inch.
