What is a dial 'O' gram balance and how it is used?

A dial 'O' gram balance is a type of weighing scale that measures the mass of an object using a pan or tray and a dial display. It is used by placing the object to be weighed on the pan and adjusting the balance until the indicator points to zero. The weight of the object is then read off the dial display.


What combination of equipment would be used to check the straightness of a crankshaft?

A precision straight edge, dial indicator gauge, and a V-block setup would be used to check the straightness of a crankshaft. The crankshaft is placed on the V-blocks, the straight edge is positioned along its length, and the dial indicator is used to measure any deviation in straightness.


What is function of dial vernier caliper?

The main function of a dial vernier caliper is to accurately measure the dimensions of an object with high precision. It has a dial indicator to provide a digital reading of the measurements, making it easier to read and record data. This type of caliper is commonly used in engineering, manufacturing, and research applications.


What instrument measures the speed of an airplane?

In aviation, the dial you look at to read your speed through the air is known as an IAS dial (indicated air speed). This dial is an indiaction only, as it works by measuring the amount of air entering the measuring tube (Pito tube); ergo a large head wind (blowing into the front of the aircraft) will give a higher indicated air speed than may actually be true.ias dial

How do you check ring and pinion backlash with a dial indicator?

To check ring and pinion backlash with a dial indicator, first secure the dial indicator to a stable point on the differential housing, ensuring the probe touches the ring gear tooth. Rotate the ring gear back and forth to find the point of maximum backlash, noting the dial indicator's reading at this point. The measurement should typically be within the specified backlash range for the gear set. Adjust the gears as necessary to achieve the correct backlash if the measurement is outside the acceptable range.
