satisfactory to see chain running in last.

always best to make sure the open end of the clip faces away from direction of rotation

[@paulkevin4407]

Why you dont use the deflection gage for tensioning? Thats the proper one

Is it necessary to teach students all the time? Considering the situation, I would have taken the opportunity to demonstrate that
when one is working on industry or anywhere else for that matter, one must accept that sometimes one need to learn on one's own .What I would have done is to explain the problem that there are situations when a chain needed to be joined together and then leave the 'bits' where the students may see them, observe them, study them and then see how they would go about putting them together in a LOGICAL manner to finish up with what the designer intended how those components would go together.
As far as the pitch of the chain is concerned, I would have suggested that as the centre of the pin is not marked so well, the edge of the pin would have done as well as it is measuring the same side of each pin say the right hand side for both the pins as the side of the pin is easier to determine accurately. Still the most important point is not just to show the student everything he needs ,but to introduce a little thinking and processing of trying to combine what components he is given.
Life long learning when the teachers are not around is also a useful issue to project to students as otherwise they will not acquire the self confidence of guaranteeing the service they provide when they are on their own. Self confidence is not easily acquired and the student must be left on his own to think out various situation he encounters. Might as well start it all in school under supervision.

good job gentlemen great help

[@steveiv9250]

Hahaha, so you measured the distance of pitch with verniers ......why not tell your viewers how this measurement relates to and identified as being
a #40 pitch or #50 pitch etc, no body is shopping with a decimal number for chain sizes NOBODY !! There going to ask for the pitch of chain , usually stamped on the plate 40, 50, 60....... yes you can convert your pin-pin measurement and come up with this pitch # if for some reason you are unable to read the plate, so explain this useful information to your viewers. Such as your measurement using your verniers, I believe it was a 0.48 or more like a 1/2” from pin-pin...divide this measurement by 1/8” will give you 4 add a zero 40 you now know you have a 40 pitch chain , this is true for all ANSI chain , it will change if you were to come across a British UK 🇬🇧 made chain, then your measurement will change to 1/16” and not 1/8”. ....If your going to show your viewers the measurement while using your big bad verniers then at least explain why and how this measurement can be used. Cheers.

Thanks

[@rajeeva9262]

Sir tow shafts are in placed with 30degree angle and 55inch distance and each shaft contain two sprockets at both ends of shaft and sprocket of 18teeth 6 inch dia and when am placing chain one chain is getting tights on bottom and another chain is loose on the bottom if i tight another one this makes same problem sir please help me regarding this

[@avcomth]

I'm disappointed that you're using non standard units in college.

[@StupidEarthlings]

Im disappointed that he said: "you TIMES THAT by 4%" lol. College.
(He may have meant "multiply that")

[@avcomth]

@@StupidEarthlings I couldn't fathom how Americans could seriously uses inches and fractions in their manufacturing and industry. I heard that even NASA uses them. I mean do they not see how wide and confusing looking those gaps are as compared to the centimeter and millimeter markings??!??

[@alexbarrosbrr197]

Very good

[@StupidEarthlings]

Are you really explaining chains and master links to COLLEGE STUDENTS?..WOW.

[@kingman2362]

Sener to sener its center not sener

Thanks a lot.
