Recently, I bought a 24" digital scale from Chronos, which I fitted to
the Z axis of my machine. It looks very similar to this one, only
longer:

I'm somewhat annoyed to discover it has a 0.004" error in every 0.100"
of travel! Is this normal for this kind of scale, or have I got a duff
one?

Is it possible that you have it mounted imperfectly parallel to
the travel? Such an angle error can cause it to read slightly high.

Good Luck,
