---|---|---|---|---|
What is Lock out Tag out?
OSHA developed system of using padlocks and tags to prevent release of hazardous energy (electrocution)
|
What is the Cartesian coordinate systems?
Two- or three-dimensional systems that use X and Y or X, Y, and Z values for location.
|
What is Comparison or comparative measurement?
Measurement that compares the specification of a part feature to known standard size, as when using fixed gages.
|
What is a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM)?
A measuring machine that inspects part features by probing many points on the feature using the X, Y, Z coordinate system.
|
What is an Inspection plan?
A quality control guideline that indicates what dimensions of parts to inspect and what measuring tools and processes to use during inspection.
|
What is the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association)?
Organization whose 704 standard provides a system of labeling hazardous materials that uses a multi-colored diamond shape to identify specific types of hazards and their levels of danger.
|
What is the English (Inch) and Metric systems?
What are the two types of measurement systems that are used in the world
|
What is a Combination set?
A measurement/layout tool that consists of a blade, square head, center head, and protractor head; the different heads are mounted to the blade by tightening a clamping screw.
|
What is Precision measurement?
Measurement finer than 1/64 or 1/100 of an inch, 0.5 (1/2) mm, and 1 degree.
|
What is a Mean
The average of a group of numerical values.
|
What is TLV (threshold limit value)?
The maximum amount of a hazardous substance that someone can be exposed to without undue effects.
|
What is 25.4mm
How many Millimeters are in 1"
|
What is a Protractor?
A tool used to measure or layout angles.
|
What is a Dial indicator?
A measuring tool that shows small movements by displaying them with a needle on a graduated dial face.
|
What is Quality Control (QC)?
The actions of inspecting the dimensions of machined parts to make sure tolerances are met.
|
Term:UEL (upper explosive limit)?
The highest concentration of the substance in air that will burn or explode if ignited.
|
What are Supplementary angles (or simply supplements)?
The result of a given angle subtracted from 180 degrees.
|
What is Semi-precision measurement
A term that usually refers to measurement when tolerances or levels of desired accuracy are no finer than 1/64 or 1/100 inch, 0.5 mm, or 1 degree.
|
What is a Go/no-go plug gage?
A measuring tool used to check whether a hole diameter or internal thread is within tolerance.
|
What is a Process plan?
A strategy of steps needed to perform a machining operation or operations.
|
What is PPB (parts per billion)?
The number of parts of a substance per billion parts of air.
|
What are Order of operations
The principle that certain mathematical operations must be done in a certain order to correctly perform calculations.
|
What is Tolerance?
A certain amount of allowable variation given to each dimension shown on an engineering drawing.
|
What are Gage blocks?
Accurately sized blocks with very smooth surfaces that can be used for part inspection or to check the accuracy of other precision measuring tools.
|
What is a Range?
A value calculated by subtracting the smallest dimension from the largest dimension in the sampling measurements.
