Materials Testing Technology Program: Gun Tube Forging Straightness Measurement System

Abstract

An MTT project was funded to automate OD runout measurements on gun tube forgings from which straightness data is generated. ID straightness measurements proved more useful. A spec was prepared and fifteen firms solicited. The sole bid was three times original estimate which lead to the cancellation of the project.
