Part – C ( 1 x 15 = 15 marks) Marks CO BL

16. A component has a square shaped slot of basic dimension *** mm (See 15 1, 2, 5
note below for the meaning of ***) with a tolerance of ± 0.25 mm. This 3
slot has to be checked using gauge block stacks (assembled gauge
blocks) which are to be used as Go- and No-Go gauges. The gauges and
the component are assumed to be at the shop floor temperature of 40 °C.
They have to be accurate at 20 °C meeting the required tolerance. The
thermal coefficient of expansion of the component is 20 x 10-6 / °C and
for the gauge is 10 x 10-6 / °C.

a) Determine the nominal sizes of the Go- and No-Go gauges to


check the slot.

b) If a 112-piece gauge block set is available, write down the gauge


blocks needed to form the Go and No-Go gauge stack of gauge
blocks considering the temperature conditions.

(Please note *** = Last three digits of your register no.+1)

(e.g., If your register no. is 2019111003, then *** = 003+1 = 4)
