Description
Excerpt from Gage Design and Gage-Making: A Treatise on the Development of Gaging Systems for Interchangeable Manufacture, the Design of Different Types of Gages and Their Production, Including Precision Machining Operations, Lapping, and Various Modern Appliances for Gage Measurement
That part of the book dealing with the development of gaging systems and gage design is based largely upon the experience and practice of the Pratt Whitney Co., in making gaging equip ment for small arms and heavy ordnance. The manufacture of munitions of war has emphasized the great importance of ade quate gaging systems in a more forceful manner than the produc tion of tools and machines used in peaceful pursuits, and the Pratt Whitney Co., has probably done a greater pioneer work along these lines during the past few years than any other concern. In the preparation of this part of the material, the authors have been substantially aided by A. E. Larsson, engineer of the Equipment Division of the Pratt Whitney Co. Valu able material has also been obtained from articles in machinery contributed by a number of other men experienced in gage-making.
