Chat with AIExam 2: Measurement and Quality
Give an overview of lean manufacturing.
(30) 
VerifiedCross-trained workers produce large or small quantities to the highest quality upon demand on flexible but productive tools. Emphasis is placed on continuous improvement-mistakes are not made twice. Visual queues provide instant information, inventory is kept extremely low, and products are not built until they are ordered by the customer. Workers are expected to be fully engaged team members and may find that the lean environment is challenging. Rapid tooling changeovers make it possible to efficiently produce a large product mix, resulting in more innovation and consumer choice. Example: Toyota vehicle manufacturing.
What has remained the same about calipers, and what has changed?
(38) VerifiedThe basic construction of a caliper has remained largely the same for many decades. What has changed is the display mode of the tool (i.e., how the user reads the measured value). Calipers are classified as either mechanical or electronic or an old style called a vernier caliper. It took people a long time to trust the electronic version of this versatile tool. Machinists are distrusting creatures by nature. After all, if a mistake is made, nobody is going to blame the measuring tool-they will blame the machinist for not checking the tool!
