The earliest expansion of "TIR" was total indicated run-out and concerned cylindrical or tapered (conical) parts, where "run-out" (noun) refers to any imperfection of form that causes a rotating part such as a shaft to "run out" (verb), that is, to not rotate with perfect smoothness.
Typically run-out is measured using a dial indicator pressed against the rotating component while it is turned. Total indicated run-out (TIR) is a technician's term for the measured run-out of any rotating system, including all forms of run-out, at the measured point. [3]
TIR: total indicator reading; total indicated run-out: For measurements of eccentricity and other deviations from nominal geometry TOS: top of steel: TOL: tolerance, tolerancing: TSC: theoretical sharp corner(s) See discussion at SC and POI. TY: type: For an explanation of "type" abbreviated as "TY", see the example given at "CL" meaning "class ...
A backplate with a female (self-releasing) taper may seat on the matching male taper of the tapered spindle nose (for lathe work) or of an adapter plate with the same nose, to be mounted on a table. This system improves the repeatability of the mounting concentricity down to a very small total indicated runout (TIR) value. Subtypes:
Example of true position geometric control defined by basic dimensions and datum features. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is a system for defining and communicating engineering tolerances via a symbolic language on engineering drawings and computer-generated 3D models that describes a physical object's nominal geometry and the permissible variation thereof.
A runout may include any of the following: Runout (climbing), a section of a rock climbing route with a long gap between points of protection; Run-out, an inaccuracy of rotating mechanical systems, specifically when a tool or shaft does not rotate exactly in line with the main axis. Run out, a method of dismissal in the sport of cricket.
A company backed by US investors sold "deforestation-free" palm oil to the makers of Cheetos, Colgate and Pepsi. But its investors have ties to the company that cleared Amazonian rainforest for ...
Fig. 1: Underwater plants in a fish tank, and their inverted images (top) formed by total internal reflection in the water–air surface. In physics, total internal reflection (TIR) is the phenomenon in which waves arriving at the interface (boundary) from one medium to another (e.g., from water to air) are not refracted into the second ("external") medium, but completely reflected back into ...
