IV-SFX, here\'s the Powerpoint Presentation Mr. Tubelleza showed us today. Please do study, thanks! :D

1. High Accuracy Measuring Devices A. Vernier Caliper B. Microcaliper

2. A. Vernier Caliper The Parts of Vernier Caliper

3. Inside jaws: Internal length (diameter) measurements are found by using this part.

4. Locking screw: b locks the instrument's movable parts.

5. Upper Scales: Vernier scale (inch) Rail (inch)

6. Lower Scales: Vernier scale (mm) Rail (mm)

7. Depth probe: The part used in order to find depth measurements Front end of the rail

8. Depth probe: The part used in order to find depth measurements Front end of the rail

9. 1. Inside jaws: Internal length measurements are found by using this part. 2. locking screw: This part blocks the instrument's movable parts in order to transfer between measurement methods easily. 3. Vernier scale (inch) 4. Rail (inch) 5. Depth probe: The part used in order to find depth measurements 6. Front end of the rail 7. Main scale (mm) 8. Vernier scale (mm) 9. Sliding Jaw 10. Outside jaws: This part makes measuring external lengths possible. 11. Fixed Jaw

10. Reading the Vernier Caliper

11. 1) Read the cm mark on the fixed scale to the left of the 0-mark on the vernier scale. (1 cm or 10mm on the fixed caliper)

12. 2. Find the mm mark on the fixed scale that is just to the left of the 0-mark on the vernier scale. (6mm or 0.6 cm on the fixed caliper)

13. 3. Look along the 20 marks on the vernier scale and the mm marks on the fixed scale, until you find the two that most nearly line up . (0.25mm on the vernier scale)

14. 4. To get the correct reading, simply add this found digit to your previous reading. (10mm + 6mm + 0.25mm= 16.25 mm)

16. 23.7 mm or 2.37 cm

18. 10.2 mm or 1.02 cm

20. 31.5 mm or 3.15 cm

22. 9.1 mm or 0.91 cm

24. 26.0 mm or 2.60 cm

26. 756.5 mm or 75.65 cm

28. 756.8 mm or 75.68 cm

31. 2. Turn the thimble until the spindle contacts the object to be measured. The rods should lightly touch the object between them but not clamp down on it. Using the Micrometer

32. 3. To apply a consistent pressure to the object, use the ratchet stop. Using the Micrometer

33. 4. Flip the locking lever to lock the measuring rods in place. Using the Micrometer

34. 5. Flip the locking lever to lock the measuring rods in place. Using the Micrometer

35. 1. The mm marks are above the horizontal line and the half-mm marks are below it.

36. 2. Read the value just exposed by the thimble on the central line of the cylinder. This value is in millimeters. 4.5 mm

37. 3. Read the mark on the thimble aligned with the horizontal line on the barrel. This mark is in hundredths of millimeters. 4.5 mm 0.13 mm

38. 4. There are 50 such marks, each turn of the thimble corresponds to half a millimeter (the distance between the upward and downward marks on the cylinder central line). 4.5 mm 0.13 mm

40. 4.5 mm 0.13 mm 4.5 mm + 0.13 mm = 4.63 mm

41. 5.5 mm 5.5 mm + 0.17 mm = 5.67 mm 0.17 mm

42. 3.5 mm + 0.17 mm = 3.67 mm 3.5 mm 0.17 mm

43. 4.5 mm 0.17 mm 4.5 mm + 0.17 mm = 4.67 mm

44. 18.5 mm + 0.40 mm = 18.90 mm
