Dial indicators for machine alignment
Copy the range and scale division from each dial indicator used to check runout. A lever indicator and a plunger indicator may sit in the same case, so label them separately. Include the stand or special contact tip if the inspection team needs it checked with the instrument.
Speed checks during machine acceptance
For a tachometer used at acceptance, tell us whether the reading is optical or taken with a contact wheel. Give the speeds on the acceptance sheet and list the wheel or adaptor held with the meter. The supplier can often release the instrument between the factory test and the installation date.
Write the receiving plot near Rajpura on the return instruction if that is where the next check will happen. Where a machine builder at IMT Manesar owns the kit, agree whether the case goes back to Manesar or stays with the installation engineer in Punjab.
Carry the configuration from the factory test to site
Keep the instrument settings used at the factory acceptance test with the tool's dispatch record. For speed measurement, that includes the selected mode and any contact wheel or adapter. If the site team plans to use a different mode, include its requirement before the calibration is booked. A result for one arrangement should not leave the next inspector guessing which accessory was fitted.
For dial indicators, identify the contact tip, the direction of travel and the interval used in the check. Record a known impact or a sticking movement so assessment can be considered before calibration. The machine supplier and the site quality engineer can use the same configuration record when reviewing the returned tool.
