  2. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    This would be a simply calibrated caliper, but the addition of a vernier scale allows more accurate interpolation and is the universal practice; this is the vernier caliper. Vernier, dial, and digital calipers can measure internal dimensions (using the uppermost jaws in the picture at right), external dimensions using the pictured lower jaws ...

    Blood-related parameters are listed in a blood test. Electrocardiograph records the electrical activity of the heart; Glucose meter for obtaining the status of blood sugar. Sphygmomanometer, a blood pressure meter used to determine blood pressure in medicine. See also Category:Blood tests

  4. Indicator (distance amplifying instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_(distance...

    Ideal test indicator pushed. Prior to modern geared dial mechanisms, test indicators using a single lever or systems of levers were common. The range and precision of these devices were generally inferior to modern dial type units, with a range of 10/1000 inch to 30/1000 inch, and precision of 1/1000 inch being typical.

  5. Vernier scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_scale

    The standard for a caliper is usually a constant of 0.02 Vernier caliper scale with the normal 0.02 vernier constant, showing measurement of object at 19.44 mm to two decimal places. The use of the vernier scale is shown on a vernier caliper which measures the internal and the external diameters of an object.

  6. Gauge (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(instrument)

    Dial indicator, also known as a dial test indicator, dial gauge, or probe indicator an instrument used to accurately measure small linear distances. Feeler gauge: a simple tool used to measure gap widths. Gauge block, (also known as a gage block, Johansson gauge, slip gauge, or Jo block) a precision ground and lapped length measuring standard.

  7. Snap gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snap_gauge

    A variation is the snap indicator gauge, [7] which incorporates a dial indicator or electronic digital indicator as one of the anvils. This indicator displays the deviation from the preset dimension and the indicator may have high and low tolerance limits marked by means of two extra needles, alteration of the dial face, or programming into an ...

  8. Gauge block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_block

    There is a formal test to measure wringability. First, the block is prepared for wringing using the standard process. The block is then slid across a 2 in (51 mm) reference grade (1 μin (0.025 μm) flatness) quartz optical flat while applying moderate pressure. Then, the bottom of the gauge block is observed (through the optical flat) for oil ...

  9. Total indicator reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_indicator_reading

    Whereas dial test indicators will give a foreshortened reading if their tips are on an angle to the surface being measured (cosine error), a drawing callout of FIM is defined as referring to the distance traveled by the extremity of the tip—not by the lesser amount that its lever-like action moves the needle.
