Millimeter (mm) to Micron (µm) converter

Converting from Millimeter (mm) to Micron (µm)

What is Millimeter (mm)

Millimeter (mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one-thousandth of a meter. It is commonly used to measure small distances, such as the thickness of paper or the diameter of small objects.

What is Micron (µm)

Micron (µm), also known as a micrometer, is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one-millionth of a meter. It is used to measure very small distances, particularly in the fields of microscopy and nanotechnology.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from millimeter (mm) to micron (µm), you can use the formula:

Micron (µm)=Millimeter (mm)×1000

And to convert from micron (µm) to millimeter (mm), the formula is:

Millimeter (mm)=Micron (µm)×0.001

Examples

  • To convert 15 millimeters to microns:

15 mm=15×1000=15000 µm

  • To convert 14 microns to millimeters:

14 µm=14×0.001=0.014 mm

  • If you have 5 millimeters, the equivalent in microns would be:

5 mm=5×1000=5000 µm

Remember, always multiply by 1000 when converting from millimeters to microns, and multiply by 0.001 when converting from microns to millimeters.
