Uses & Types of plug gauges

Plug Gauges manufacturers in India

Mechanical Gauges are primarily used to test the uniformity, quality and precision of a finished product before it is packed for use. For different types of applications, different gauges are available.
One gauge that is used than all the others is Plug gauge. It is a piece of simple testing equipment yet a piece of engineering marvel. A technician takes a plug gauge and checks the depth and diameter of a hole.

Characteristics of a Plug Gauge:
Each plug gauge is made keeping in mind the specification of the end user. Plug gauges manufacturers uses the inputs provided by the client and machine out a made to order test ready product. It has the limits mentioned on the sides for testing & validation. Thread plug gauges are used to check the consistency and uniformity of threads. There is a go and nogo level threads in either side of the gauge to confirm the accuracy and precision during the manufacturing process.

 Types of Plug Gauges

Depth Plug Gauges
Go NoGo Plug gauges


Depth Gauge: With the use of depth gauge, a technician inserts the gauge in the hole and checks the depth of the hole by confirming the readings on the sides of the plug gauge. This allows the user to use the gauge without having any specialized skills.

Go Nogo Plug gauge: There are 2 ends in this gauge, if the product is made correct only one end with be able to get in and the other side will not fit.


Thread Plug Gauge: These are used to check the uniformity and precision of a threads, if the product is well made, thread gauge should not meet any resistance during the inspection process.

Uses of Plug Gauges
  • 1       Check measurements of the products.
  • 2       Confirm uniformity in and accuracy.
  • 3       Validate the product for use
  • 4       Reject the batch if the standards are not met.

CNC Machine Tool Holders: Types and Uses

Image
CNC machines or Computer Numerically Controlled Machines are electrical devices that can manipulate tools around a varying number of axis usually 3 or 5 with high precision instructions from a computer program. CNC machining is one of the best technique using which engineers, machinists can manufacture parts/tools using a uniform pattern of computer design file, though times are changing, and the world is moving onto 3D printing, but they are not a most economical when put into production. Hence, CNC machine and tools are the best option to select when manufacturing in a highly price sensitive country like India. CNC machine tools are mounted on the mouth of the machine where it serves the purpose of removing the additional material by milling, scrapping, sanding the solid object.   A tool holder is a short steel bar having a shank at one end by which it is clamped to a machine and a clamp on the other hand to hold small interchangeable bits.   A CNC machine tool holder is m

India has always been an engineering hub. Right from the stone ages to the middle ages and now in the modern technologically advanced world. Methods may have changed but one thing that remains static is the emphasis on quality of finished product. Take for example any architectural marvel in India, the Taj Mahal, Elephanta caves, even the latest one the statue of unity. All were made of such high-quality precision as if it is a 3d printed model. The truth is that these were made by highly skilled craftsmen of their times. Hours and hours of precision work accomplished to achieve the end result and go down in the history books for its magnificent and mesmerizing tale of dedication. Times have changed and so have the requirements. Now one doesn’t need to carve stones, the newer requirements bring fresh challenges and pose an even bigger scale to climb. With limited time and resources most of the work must be done by using precision tools and machines. This will not only increase t

Sawhney Engineering co. has been manufacturing precision tooling, component and parts for over 30 years. We specialize in manufacturing made to order tools. Our range includes Precision tools, CNC Machine tool holders, fixtures, gauges, spindle and shafts. In the era of competition, where ready made tools are available everywhere, we have carved out our niche in the engineering world. We do have a simple process to manufacture products. The one thing that distinguishes us from others is paying attention to detail, the ability to understand complex structures and simplifying the manufacturing process. Perhaps this is the reason why we have been awarded twice within a span of 1 year in the precision components category. We, the engineers call machine parts as precision components. It would also be nice to call them as precious components as without them fitting precisely, a machine won’t function in an optimized state causing it to underperform or even worse, not function at a
