Q. If reference circle of gear is eccentric then which error is reflected by this eccentricity?
✅ Correct Answer: (C)
pitch error
Explanation: it must be emphasised that there are some in-built limitations in the gear itself while the accuracy of measurement of gear depends upon the measuring equipment available, such as the inability of a gear to define its own axis of rotation. thus if the reference circle of gear is eccentric, it would be reflected in pitch error.
