Lesson 2/Learning Event 2
Applications of the vernier caliper are shown in Figure 34. Figure 34, Part
A, shows a machinist checking the outside diameter of a part.
One hand
holds the stationary jaw to locate it, while the other hand operates the
adjusting nut and moves the sliding jaw to the work. The same procedure is
used in checking the inside dimension, Figure 34, Part B.
