The Calculated Industries Scale Master Pro XE is an advanced digital plan measure designed for pre...The Calculated Industries Scale Master Pro XE is an advanced digital plan measure designed for precise takeoffs on printed blueprints, drawings, and maps. It features a high-visibility red wheel to quickly and accurately measure linear distances, square areas, or cubic volumes. This tool offers 91 architectural and engineering scales, including 41 metric and 50 US scales, with multiple unit options such as decimal feet, feet-inches, decimal inches, yards, millimeters, meters, and kilometers, in both square and cubic formats. It also includes 10 custom scales (5 metric and 5 US) for plans that are out of scale due to reduction, enlargement, faxing, scanning, or PDF conversion, allowing you to calibrate to any plan and store custom scales. Estimate with confidence anywhere – on the jobsite, in your office, or on the go. The Scale Master Pro XE includes a manual and auto-counter for items like studs, with touch count to add and subtract functions. It also has an input jack for an optional PC-interface cable (sold separately). The package comes complete with long-life batteries, a hard protective case, a user guide, and a 1-year warranty.
