1 .I Recommendations
This standard provides qualification procedures for
involute measuring instruments including the
design and calibration of involute, pin, and plane
(flank) masters. It also covers condition evaluation
of the measuring instrument such as probe location,
gain, hysteresis, etc.
Recommendations are included for guidance to the
establishment of a proper environment and for
statistical data evaluation procedures.
Master analysis is included in annex A. Statistical
data evaluation procedures are included in annexes
D, E, and F.
Mathematics for the use and evaluation of pin and
plane (flank) masters are found in annex B .
This standard is applicable solely to the qualification
of gear tooth profile inspection instruments. Certification
of the involute profile inspection process
(total measurement process) is a far more comprehensive
undertaking that is beyond the scope of this
standard. The measurement procedures outlined
in the document are not intended for qualification of
product gears. See ANSVAGMA 200SA88.
1.2 Standard use
Involute instrument calibration uses master artifacts
for the qualification of gear tooth profile inspection
equipment, including environment and fundamental
instrument setup and performance. The standard is
generally used by, but not limited to:
Manufacturers and users of gear inspection
Manufacturers and users of geared power
-
equipment.
-
transmission products.
