V anvil micrometer
V-anvil
Micrometer
This
is a special purpose micrometer used for checking out-of-roundness condition in
centreless grinding and machining operations, odd-fluted taps, milling cutters,
reamers etc. Use of special fixtures is eliminated in this type of micrometer.
The
V equals 60 degrees and the tip of the Vee coincides with axis of spindle. The
zero reading of micrometer starts from a point where the two sides of the V
meet. Figure 5.16 shows a V-anvil micrometer caliper.
