One of our foreign suppliers is disagreeing with my gear DOP measurement method. I have been taught that when measuring spur gear DOP, one always uses two pins - no matter if the gear has an even or odd number of teeth. I have used this method for 15+ years without problem. (You would use three pins or balls for worm gears or screw threads.) The foreign "expert" says that you use three pins for odd number of teeth on spur gears.
I can find trade literature to back up my method. But I do not know of a standard or anything more formal to back up my position. Is there anyting out there that anyone knows of?
Thanks,
Scott
