Fun fact: The red tip on the end of the probe (in the thumbnail photo) is actually a precious Ruby gem. I was a machinist for several years and worked in the CMM room occasionally where precision parts were measured in x, y, and z axis. They use a Ruby tip on the probe because it can touch objects many thousands of times without wearing out or becoming disfigured or flattened on the end, from repeated long term use. It maintains a perfect surface tip for touching and measuring with precise accuracy for repeated regular use over extended periods of time, as an accurate precise measuring device. Once the probe touches a part in many points, in all axises the computer gets a picture of exactly what the part looks like, in order to maintain continuity of accuracy in the production process of the parts being machined.)

Got here from the Flatness video, this one is well done as well for a high level introduction. A great follow-up to this one would be a GD&T specific video on the differences between circularity (roundness), cylindricity, run-out, and total run-out. You may find your word choice in this video isn't quite as precise as it needs to be if you dive into that rabbit hole. Well done nonetheless.
around 5:00 they go on about "constant diameter" then go on some long winded explanation about circumscribed circles, instead of just saying to use constant radius. i quit watching the vid after that lol
when you try to drill a thin sheet of metal, most of the time the drill hole is a reuleaux triangle. i never realized that this shape has a constant diameter, it all makes sense now since the drill bits are almost a line in their cross section.
@@klazzera Also, use a vise to hold the part, oil for lube, and go slow on the drill press handle.. assuming of course that the roundness of the required hole is important.. ;)
@@GenoLoma yeah also you can use a piece of oiled fabric between the part and the drill, not sure why it works but i saw it on youtube, better for big sheet metal structures when you cant use the press
For drilling thin sheets I always put hardwood underneath and slowly drill through into the wood below The pressure from underneath keeps it flat and the slow steady follow thru keeps things round
I used to have to change tools in a horizontal mill and tram them in to less than 50 millionths TIR , the set the front of the insert to 6-9 microns above the guide pads and about 15 microns below at the back ... I would say this is a very truthful and informative video
Red Pilled mititoyo , and basic production machine shop. When your shoving a one shot boring bar ( no rougher ) that’s 4 fluted , pcd tipped , and 385 mm long down an aluminum part in 3.2 seconds holding plus or minus .015 microns on diameter , shit has to be straight.
Was doing some reading and it seems the ways of manufacturing machines often use moore scraping to get them very flat. The techniques are amazing really when you get to that level where holding a part and heating it will give you measurable deviations.

Roundness is directly proportional to the volume of beer I consume in a given period of time. I am now perfectly round as I have optimized my consumption of beer.

Good point and the USC is not a true measurement system as it has no references other than to the Metric system. The USC is a trade barrier employed by axis of evil countries like the USA and North Korea.
I'm just a layman, but in the middle of the video I too begun to feel that something is not quite right. At first I couldn't put a finger on what it is, but a little later I realized that it's the words "science" and "inches" used together. It doesn't ruin the video at all (I think the video is very good). It just feels a little off. On the other hand it's easy for me to notice, as I live in a "metric country". I have a great sympathy towards those people who don't learn to use the metric system as children, and for some reason have to learn it when they are older. The metric system is of course easier than the imperial system, but you still have to "grow" to it to feel comfortable using it. I'm glad that I don't have to learn the imperial system - that would be torture. Well, I know that one mile is about 1,6 km, and an inch is about 2,5 cm, but that's about it :-). And of course the actual torture aren't the units themselves, but counting and converting between them.
I just found you in my suggestions after watching a bunch of space videos and I'm glad you did. I love the information and how in-depth you go. Thank you for making all these videos, they are really interesting. You earned a new subscriber.
Great video! I'm glad these are showing up in my recommended. These videos make a great compliment to the Machine Thinking channel. FIM (full indicator movement) is slowly replacing TIR on engineering drawings. I would've liked to see discussion of roundness vs cylindricity vs sphericity. Roundness has a somewhat transcendent quality because it only exists in 2 dimensions and doesn't exist in a 3D world.

The reason why the wheel reduces friction is because when a wheel is rotating, without any force being applied on it, the point of contact is at rest when compared to the ground. This is because the point of contact has two components to its velocity, one the linear motion of the wheel, and two the rotational component, which are equal and opposite to each other, when the wheel is perfect rolling. And since there is no relative motion between the wheel and the ground, there is no friction. Also the frictional force between two surfaces only depends on the normal force between them, and the materials they are made from. It is independent of the surface area of the contact
What you say about friction is a theoretical concept laid down in Coulomb's law of friction. It does not hold up to close scrutiny in practice; the coefficient of friction is NOT constant. Both speed an pressure have an influence. As for no friction between wheel and surface: again, this is an assumption of perfection. The touching surfaces are not infinitesimally hard; they deform on contact. As there is hysteresis between compression and release, the center of force of the contact area is shifted from the point exactly under the axle of the wheel, resulting in a small distance that acts as a lever. Rolling friction thus is sometimes expressed in terms of that "friction radius"; this concept explains why larger wheels roll more lightly, (that, and the fact that they re less disturbed by imperfections in flatness on the surface they roll on.
@@HotelPapa100 That's totally irrelevant to the point in the video about leverage. If your wheel was the same diameter as your axle you'd have a hard time overcoming the friction. With a large wheel on a small axle you have leverage making it much easier to overcome the friction, because there's less distance for the rubbing surfaces to travel against each other, and more force (torque).
@@peetiegonzalez1845 I was replying to Sankar Manoj. That the lever in a wheel is hidden in the ratio outer diameter to bearing diameter is kinda obvious if you analyze the problem a little more in detail.
I measure this stuff everyday and believe this is a terrific video to explain to the production folks exactly what we are measuring and how that measurement is being made. Thank you.
TIR0 I came up with this user name some 20 years ago. Over time I found out dozens of meanings of the word which always fit me. And you just unraveled another one, the biggest meaning so far. And it fits me again perfectly since I’m a notorious perfectionist.
Fascinating video. Runout is not necessarily caused by out of roundness. At 8’22” a shaft with a smaller journal is shown. If both cylinders are ‘perfectly round ‘ but their axes are not concentric, non-parallel, or both, runout will be present. In this demonstration, the runout decreases as the indicator was lowered. Either the journal was less round at the shoulder than its tip or its axis was not aligned with the body of the shaft (or the specimen was not held properly in the fixture...).
Runout isn't a measure of roundness the way you have it depicted in the video. If a component is in a fixed-axis rotational setup (as depicted in the video), then it could be perfectly round and still have non-zero runout if it's axis of roundness is not aligned with its axis of rotation. In other words, runout of a part rotating around a fixed axis is a measure of roundness and concentricity, and non-zero runout doesn't tell you whether roundness or concentricity is off. In order for runout to be a measure of roundness only, it has to be measured using a V-block, as depicted earlier in your video.
I just started my career as a CNC machinist. This video was absolutely entertaining and incredibly informative. Thank you for producing such a wonderful video!
2:33, this double's the torque at wheel A's axle, not B's. 2:59, the reason a wheel reduces the effective coefficient of friction is NOT because only a small area of the wheel makes contact with the road. It IS because the vertical force on the axle bearing is (essentially -- see below) the same as the force between the wheel and the road. If the wheel is rolling, the sliding friction force acts on a lever length equal to the radius of the axle bearing, whereas if the wheel is sliding, the sliding friction force acts on a lever length equal to the radius of the wheel. The friction is reduced by the ratio of the two radii. Note that the above is for the simple case of same coefficient of sliding friction in the bearing and between the wheel and road, a simple sliding bearing (versus roller or ball bearing), and uses an ideal wheel (as mentioned in the video) that doesn't deform under load, and has zero weight (even real wheels weight much less than the loads on them).
Wow, I watched 2 videos on curves,solids of constant width like rouleaux triangles yesterday. I didn't expect to see them again in this video. I just came across it while binge watching other videos on this channel. I wasn't actively looking for anything about rouleaux polygons.
This channel is one year old and already has such quality videos. It's like the new Vsauce but without too drastic tangents. Though, it'd be good if you cited sources and additional reading in the description alongside the transcript. Possibly through another URL such as google docs.
You can use circles to measure more in depth thermal and electrical properties of circuit layouts and place/manage the devices and required logic better.
at 2:15 it is not related to diameter but to circumference and if you are talking science use metric like every scientific establishment in the world, it is much easier and avoids needing to relate scale to household objects
Ah yes, much better to use one forty-millionth the circumference of a random rock in space that isn't even actually spherical; and when we decide we don't like that, we'll use the distance light travels in one 299,792,458ths of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation of Cesium-133. Far more scientific. :P
@@phiwise_9489 Are you aware that feet are defined in terms of meters, therefore, feet are also defined by the distance light travels in one 299,792,458ths of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation of Cesium-133.
Makes one wonder how retard unit users measure voltage, current, power, magnetic flow, inductivity, time, frequency, amount of light, bullet impact force and file size...
Machining is done in imperial due to the legacy of the system including the equipment reading in imperial. So most machinists are fluint in both systems.
Man, this is my new favorite channel. Great work on these videos. Don't listen to the unit of measure trolls. The concepts you explain are of the fundamental nature of things, and valid regardless of units systems.
Finding not only a fulcrum that could be strong enough to life the rock in the initial example & a force that could reach the height of such a long fulcrum are major considerations. Love these videos- Roundness, flatness- I didn’t even know ovality was a word! Soundly like an arthritis medication lol. #RockOn #KeepLearning
This video is informative and helpful.. ..been looking and searching for some information that i can learn to solve my problem about unsble rondness ... many mechanical set up and replacement of machine parts and toolings were done , leveling of machine and runout checking of spindle were conducted.. yet same problem still occur most frequently.. i just hope, this channel.can give.an additional advice and solutions.. thank you..
The lineup consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzel veins, so fitted to the ambifaciant lunar wane shaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. It's produced by the modial interaction of the magneto reluctance and capacitive directance. The original machine had a base-plate of pre-formulated amulite surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing, in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panometric fan. The main widing was of the normal lotus deltoid type placed in panodermic semi-boloid slots of the stator. Every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremi pipe to the differential girdle spring on the up end of the gram meter.
Really fascinating (as always)! I’m curious how they get to “first principles” roundness (for lack of a better term). For example, the metrology setup used a probe and a rotating stage. How do they know that the rotation of the stage is perfectly circular? I guess that’d be when it has zero TIR, but what if deviations in roundness of the stage just happen to correlate with opposing deviations in the bearing supporting it? The info on bearings was eye-opening, I had no idea they could be so perfectly spherical(!)
I really like how you start with the basic concept, and definition and step by step go thru different fields using the same or similar concept. For me it's really eye opening when I can compare different scenarios and find the commons or differences. Keep it up!
Watched the flatness video a couple weeks ago, so of course, YT has been suggesting this one ever since. Can finally say, I'm glad I watched it! Sub'd after this one as well, thanks for the content!
At 12:40 there’s something I don’t understand regarding the radial separation of the largest inscribed circle vs the largest circumscribed circle. Namely, why is there any reason to believe that these two largest circles will be concentric?
@ 9:05 I experienced an endorphin kick when seeing the dial gauge shape up to 5 to 1. Having spent the last six months dialing in bicycle disk rotors seeing something go from 5 to 1 on a dial gauge makes happy. ROUNDNESS!
Your explanation of the least squares circle was fascinating to me because least squares is used all the time my field, computer science, but is normally taught in the context of machine learning, robotics, or computer vision.
True, but as he mentioned in the video an axis or point of rotation is not always available or useful in metrology, which is why the circumscribed/inscribed circle method is the preferred fundamental principle.
at 3:31it seems that the explanation of friction reduction is because of the small contact area, but I thought is was because there is no sliding between the surface of the wheel and the plane it is sitting on. If the wheel was not free to rotate, the contact area would be the same but the friction would not be reduced.
This was a great inteoduction to the definitions and measurements of roundness, but i would love to see the machining aspect as well. How does one actually create roundness.
The term according to the associated specifications is circularity which is half of cylindericity. A circle is a two dimensional object which has no thickness. Circularity is only a pictorial view. The concept of fits and clearences is based on the fact that two objects can occupy the same space at the same time.
Fun fact: The red tip on the end of the probe (in the thumbnail photo) is actually a precious Ruby gem. I was a machinist for several years and worked in the CMM room occasionally where precision parts were measured in x, y, and z axis. They use a Ruby tip on the probe because it can touch objects many thousands of times without wearing out or becoming disfigured or flattened on the end, from repeated long term use. It maintains a perfect surface tip for touching and measuring with precise accuracy for repeated regular use over extended periods of time, as an accurate precise measuring device. Once the probe touches a part in many points, in all axises the computer gets a picture of exactly what the part looks like, in order to maintain continuity of accuracy in the production process of the parts being machined.)

If both cylinders are ‘perfectly round ‘ but their axes are not concentric, non-parallel, or both, runout will be present. In this demonstration, the runout decreases as the indicator was lowered. Either the journal was less round at the shoulder than its tip or its axis was not aligned with the body of the shaft (or the specimen was not held properly in the fixture...).
Runout isn't a measure of roundness the way you have it depicted in the video. If a component is in a fixed-axis rotational setup (as depicted in the video), then it could be perfectly round and still have non-zero runout if it's axis of roundness is not aligned with its axis of rotation. In other words, runout of a part rotating around a fixed axis is a measure of roundness and concentricity, and non-zero runout doesn't tell you whether roundness or concentricity is off. In order for runout to be a measure of roundness only, it has to be measured using a V-block, as depicted earlier in your video.
Great video ! Could you include metric measurements as well ?
L+Ratio lmao Get 360NoseFucked N00b gg
Full agreement, I'm surprised that more people aren't upset about this.
I just started my career as a CNC machinist. This video was absolutely entertaining and incredibly informative. Thank you for producing such a wonderful video!

Wow I can't believe you don't have more subs. Excellent content!
2:33, this double's the torque at wheel A's axle, not B's.
2:59, the reason a wheel reduces the effective coefficient of friction is NOT because only a small area of the wheel makes contact with the road. It IS because the vertical force on the axle bearing is (essentially -- see below) the same as the force between the wheel and the road. If the wheel is rolling, the sliding friction force acts on a lever length equal to the radius of the axle bearing, whereas if the wheel is sliding, the sliding friction force acts on a lever length equal to the radius of the wheel. The friction is reduced by the ratio of the two radii.
Note that the above is for the simple case of same coefficient of sliding friction in the bearing and between the wheel and road, a simple sliding bearing (versus roller or ball bearing), and uses an ideal wheel (as mentioned in the video) that doesn't deform under load, and has zero weight (even real wheels weight much less than the loads on them).
The word 'doubles' does not need an apostrophe
Wow, I watched 2 videos on curves,solids of constant width like rouleaux triangles yesterday. I didn't expect to see them again in this video. I just came across it while binge watching other videos on this channel. I wasn't actively looking for anything about rouleaux polygons.
This channel is one year old and already has such quality videos. It's like the new Vsauce but without too drastic tangents.
Though, it'd be good if you cited sources and additional reading in the description alongside the transcript. Possibly through another URL such as google docs.
You can use circles to measure more in depth thermal and electrical properties of circuit layouts and place/manage the devices and required logic better.
This is so interesting, I would have never even wondered about this stuff.
Very well done videos. This is probably my fourth. Next up, The Evolution of CPU Processing.
Great job explaining stuff. Feynman would be proud.
You can also measure roundness by measuring the radius of the circle at every given angle. The more samples you measure the more precise it gets.
at 2:15 it is not related to diameter but to circumference and if you are talking science use metric like every scientific establishment in the world, it is much easier and avoids needing to relate scale to household objects
I will be looking forward to your video
Great video. Such a simple thing runs our world.
Left the field of engineering but did really well in college Metrology, I always appreciated metrology and the precision of things we can make
IF you're going to do a Science Of video then maybe use science units? Who still measures things with body parts?
Ah yes, much better to use one forty-millionth the circumference of a random rock in space that isn't even actually spherical; and when we decide we don't like that, we'll use the distance light travels in one 299,792,458ths of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation of Cesium-133. Far more scientific. :P
Phiwise_ I sure hope you're being facetious.
@@phiwise_9489 Are you aware that feet are defined in terms of meters, therefore, feet are also defined by the distance light travels in one 299,792,458ths of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation of Cesium-133.
Makes one wonder how retard unit users measure voltage, current, power, magnetic flow, inductivity, time, frequency, amount of light, bullet impact force and file size...
Machining is done in imperial due to the legacy of the system including the equipment reading in imperial. So most machinists are fluint in both systems.
Excellent treatise! I wanted to do this on my channel, but I like your's so much I'll just send people here!
Man, this is my new favorite channel. Great work on these videos. Don't listen to the unit of measure trolls. The concepts you explain are of the fundamental nature of things, and valid regardless of units systems.
With 292k followers honestly this channel is way underrated
Finding not only a fulcrum that could be strong enough to life the rock in the initial example & a force that could reach the height of such a long fulcrum are major considerations. Love these videos- Roundness, flatness- I didn’t even know ovality was a word! Soundly like an arthritis medication lol. #RockOn #KeepLearning
This video is informative and helpful..
..been looking and searching for some information that i can learn to solve my problem about unsble rondness ...
many mechanical set up and replacement of machine parts and toolings were done , leveling of machine and runout checking of spindle were conducted.. yet same problem still occur most frequently..
i just hope, this channel.can give.an additional advice and solutions..
thank you..
The lineup consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzel veins, so fitted to the ambifaciant lunar wane shaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented.
It's produced by the modial interaction of the magneto reluctance and capacitive directance. The original machine had a base-plate of pre-formulated amulite surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing, in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panometric fan.
The main widing was of the normal lotus deltoid type placed in panodermic semi-boloid slots of the stator.
Every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremi pipe to the differential girdle spring on the up end of the gram meter.
Every once in awhile, YT's algorithm sends something that blows me away. Today was it.
He already got me mesmerized in the first 4 minutes when I realized it was just the intro!
It's amazing that some chill music made me sit through a lecture on metrology.
...I'm a computer science student.
Why do I enjoy watching these videos AFTER I've spent too much time on my GD&T homework.
Great job, Best I've seen in a while, on any subject.
I'm new to this series, thanks for sharing such great content!
This video can be a semester project highlight.. nice
Such basic concepts go so deep.
Impressive ending and throughly educational!
Really fascinating (as always)! I’m curious how they get to “first principles” roundness (for lack of a better term). For example, the metrology setup used a probe and a rotating stage. How do they know that the rotation of the stage is perfectly circular? I guess that’d be when it has zero TIR, but what if deviations in roundness of the stage just happen to correlate with opposing deviations in the bearing supporting it?
The info on bearings was eye-opening, I had no idea they could be so perfectly spherical(!)
I really like how you start with the basic concept, and definition and step by step go thru different fields using the same or similar concept. For me it's really eye opening when I can compare different scenarios and find the commons or differences.
Keep it up!
Awesome channel, so glad it got recommended to me.
Keep up the good work!
That was a well Rounded video!
6:07 wow, you just explained the concept of circularity tolerance so easily...
Watched the flatness video a couple weeks ago, so of course, YT has been suggesting this one ever since. Can finally say, I'm glad I watched it! Sub'd after this one as well, thanks for the content!
Seriously amazing work.
At 12:40 there’s something I don’t understand regarding the radial separation of the largest inscribed circle vs the largest circumscribed circle.
Namely, why is there any reason to believe that these two largest circles will be concentric?
Great video mate, it would be good to see you cover more mechanical engineering topics.
@ 9:05 I experienced an endorphin kick when seeing the dial gauge shape up to 5 to 1. Having spent the last six months dialing in bicycle disk rotors seeing something go from 5 to 1 on a dial gauge makes happy. ROUNDNESS!
Your explanation of the least squares circle was fascinating to me because least squares is used all the time my field, computer science, but is normally taught in the context of machine learning, robotics, or computer vision.
I welcome this with exceptional insight!
12:42 I believe you mean "the LARGEST circle that can fit inside measured datum"
me too. As i understood the *inscribed circle* of the *minimum zone (annulus) reference circle* match the *maximum inscribed reference circle*
I' appreciate the use of metric units in your videos.
I really appreciate you doing these videos. Thanks
A constant diameter doesn't constitute roundness but a constant radius does.
True, but as he mentioned in the video an axis or point of rotation is not always available or useful in metrology, which is why the circumscribed/inscribed circle method is the preferred fundamental principle.
@@pork_cake I didn't quite understand how you find those circles with out a physical center.
@@pork_cake but how do you know you created a circle to measure if it's a circle?
at 3:31it seems that the explanation of friction reduction is because of the small contact area, but I thought is was because there is no sliding between the surface of the wheel and the plane it is sitting on. If the wheel was not free to rotate, the contact area would be the same but the friction would not be reduced.
This was a great inteoduction to the definitions and measurements of roundness, but i would love to see the machining aspect as well. How does one actually create roundness.
please tell us the metric values alongside the imperial values
We put a band in between the dial indicator and gears so it skips over the valleys and gives a great reading.
The term according to the associated specifications is circularity which is half of cylindericity. A circle is a two dimensional object which has no thickness. Circularity is only a pictorial view. The concept of fits and clearences is based on the fact that two objects can occupy the same space at the same time.
This is absolutely and completely fascinating. Can I ask what your background is. What did you study I mean ?
Mechanical-Manufacturing Engineering. We have studied that in two courses: Manufacturing Process, and Quality Control.
Freedom units should always be stated next to metric units. Especially on such a scientific video!
