3003

OBJECTIVES:
• To understand the basic principles of measurements
• To learn about various methods of measuring Mechanical parameters

UNIT I

CONCEPT OF MEASUREMENT

9

General concept – Generalised measurement system-Units and standards-measuring instruments: sensitivity, stability, range, accuracy and precision-static and dynamic response-repeatability- systematic and random errors-correction, calibration - Introduction to Dimensional and Geometric Toleranceing – interchangeability.

UNIT II

LINEAR AND ANGULAR MEASUREMENT

9

Definition of metrology-Linear measuring instruments: Vernier, micrometer, Slip gauges and classification, - Tool Makers Microscope - interferometery, optical flats, - Comparators: limit gauges Mechanical, pneumatic and electrical comparators, applications. Angular measurements: -Sine bar, Sine center, bevel protractor and angle Decker..


UNIT III

FORM MEASUREMENT

9

Measurement of screw threads: Thread gauges, floating carriage micrometer measurement of gear tooth thickness: constant chord and base tangent method-Gleason gear testing machine – radius measurements-surface finish: equipment and parameters, straightness, flatness and roundness measurements.

UNIT IV

LASER AND ADVANCES IN METROLOGY

9

Precision instruments based on laser-Principles- laser interferometer-application in measurements and machine tool metrology- Coordinate measuring machine (CMM): need, construction, types, applications.- computer aided inspection.

UNIT V

MEASUREMENT OF MECHANICAL PARAMETERS

9

Force, torque, power:-mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic and electrical type-Pressure measurement - Flow: Venturi, orifice, rotameter, pitot tube –Temperature: bimetallic strip, thermocouples, pyrometer, electrical resistance thermistor

TOTAL : 45 PERIODS

OUTCOMES: Upon completion of this course the student will be able
