"Over the past 6 years that I have conducted workshops at and consulted
with dozens of companies and hundreds of personnel. I often receive
feedback regarding Master Gages.
There seems to be some confusion regarding the definition of Master
Gages. In particular, there is often a question regarding Master Gage
Blocks. I have found, in particular, 2 scenarios regarding Master Gage Blocks..."

The gage's electronic transducer can operate in a number of different  ways, typically LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transducer) or
through a digital scale-based technology. The resulting signal can be amplified
or counted and is then available for display on an electronic readout or it can
be fed directly into a computer-based software system..."

 "Many people confuse the act of measuring a part with that of gaging a part. Although both operations are similar, understanding the subtle differences between the two can improve the accuracy and efficiency of both processes. Measuring is the process of determining the dimensions of a part by referring to a standard. Precision tools, such as scales, 
calipers and micrometers, are measuring instruments. They have a
built-in dimensional reference such as precision etched lines, a
magnetic scale, or a precision screw. These provide the standard against
which the part is compared..."

Gentleness is not just saying nice words, however. In fact, gentle speech is most important when hard things need to be said.  An
