Tom, DoAll made a sine bar called a Second/Tenth Bar. The center distance was 20.62664" which provided exactly one second arc change per .0001" of gage block build up. Pretty cool.

Hi Tom, Those Vee Anvil Mics are indispensable in checking for roundness in centerless ground parts. If the centerline of the piece you are grinding is below centerline of the grinding and regulating wheels, you tend to get an out of round condition that can't be detected with regular mics. Like a Reuleaux triangle.

I think you'll find that magnetic transfer block (we just called them magnetic parallels) handy for when you need to grind stuff really flat and parallel. Dress the wheel, set the block on the grinder, dust it off,_ DO NOT TURN OFF THE CHUCK_, wipe clean, set part and grind. Holding spacers for precision spindle bearings at .00005 or less was a piece of cake. Dusting off the block every time you use it gives you the flattest surface you can get on your grinder. I've got a few in my box plus angles from 1,2,3,4,5,10,15,30 and 45 I my box.

The granite sine bar also appears to have the two rolls on different levels, on a tangent line not parallel to the "work holding" surface. Don't know why, perhaps so a standard gage block (or something more interesting?) could be a primary space block contacting sine bar and surface plate? Or maybe so it can achieve negative angles? Anyway, that changes the base distance a bit from what the roll to roll center distance measures.

Tom, it would be so cool to see a video on airy and bessel points. Like how long/thin a piece of metal needs to be before we can actually see a measurable deflection. (Like, you wouldn't see measurable deflection in a 3"(W)x6"(H)x16"(L) piece of steel that's stood up on the 3" side. Maybe you could detect it with your electronic gear, but when would we be able to detect a deflection.) Thanks Tom!

I believe that the electronic indicators work on the principle of impedance; meaning you basically have a ferrite core moving in a coil, which changes the impedance. It does not make sense to try to measure a DC voltage over this system. Maybe someone who knows about electronics can shine a light up here?
@oxtoolco7 жыл бұрын
Hi Fernand, The coils are actually dual wound coils with an iron core. No moving parts. I think they behave like little transformers. The electronics in the base measures the phase shift between the two opposing transformers. There are no moving parts other than the indicator arm. Might be fun to tear it down and examine the entire system as I don't have a good feel for the subtleties of how it works. Thanks for the comment. Cheers, Tom
