Correct Answer - Option 3 : both
Explanation:
Gauges are used for inspecting a given dimension whether it is within the tolerance limits specified or not. Thus gauges are used for accepting a dimension rather than measuring it.
Types and functions of different gauges
- Snap gauge - For gauging external dimensions
- Plug gauge - For gauging internal dimensions
- Taper plug gauge - for gauging taper holes
- Ring gauge - for gauging external diameters
- Gap gauge - For gauging gaps and grooves
Taylor's principle of gauge design
ACCEPTED
|
REJECTED
|
If GO plug enters the hole:
Hole size is greater than the minimum size limit of the hole and thus accepted.
|
If GO plug fails to enter:
Hole size is smaller than the minimum size limit of the hole and thus rejected.
|
If NO-GO plug fails to enter the hole:
Hole size is smaller than the maximum size limit and thus accepted.
|
If NO-GO plug enters the hole:
Hole size is greater than the maximum size limit of the hole.
