11、icUsage.In 1972, the AGMA Technical Division Executive Committee (TDEC) started the formation of a committeereferred to as the Metric Study Committee. The first meeting of this Metric Study Committee was on January23, 1973. In March 1974, the AGMA Board of directors instructed its Technical Division
12、 to:D Form a standing Metric Resource and Advisory Committee.D Establish detailed procedures to effect a changeover, i.e., create a metric usage standard.The first meeting of the Metric Resource and Advisory Committee was held on November 4, 1974. A proposedAGMA Information Sheet, Guide for Use of S
13、I (Metric) Units in Gearing, AGMA 600.XX was drafted over thenext years. On September 21, 1977, the Metric Resource and Advisory Committee changed the name of theproposed standard 600.XX to AGMA Standard for Metric Usage. The standard 600.01 was issued in March1979.On September 12, 1979, the first d
14、raft of Procedural Guidelines for Metrication of AGMA Standards waswritten. This document was released on June 4, 1980 as Policy and Practice guide Number 040.17,Procedure for the Metrication of AGMA Standards.TheGuidelines for Metrication were approved by theAGMA Board on November 2, 1977.In 1988,
15、the TDEC converted this revision to an Information Sheet and assigned compliance review to AGMAHeadquarters Staff. In 1996, it was uptdated and the symbols tables 10.1 and 10.2 were removed, which canbe found in AGMA 900-F96.This Information Sheet is to be used as an editorial guide when preparing t
16、he AGMA metric standards andinformation sheets. It describes the SI system of units and the multiples and sub-multiples to be used inAGMA standards.The guidelines for metrication are as follows:(1) The intent of the process is conversion to SI units, not the revision of content.(2) The purpose of th
17、ese guidelines is to assure uniformity of metric terms and abbreviations.(3) Generally, metrication will be performed by the responsible committee. Exception will be at thediscretion of the TDEC.(4) There shall be two methods of generating metric standards, the choice of which shall be at thediscret
18、ion of the originating committee. All standards on which revision is begun after January 1, 1991 shall beprepared in accordance with one of the two following methods.(a) Standards may be developed in hard metric only.(b) Parallel standards, in which both hard conversion SI and conventional inch vers
19、ions of standards willbe available for the same purpose.(5) Metrication shall conform to AGMA 904-C96 which references ANSI/IEEE 268-1982 and ISO 1000.(6) Preparation of a hard metric document shall be approved by the TDEC prior to starting work.(7) The documents shall be reviewed for conformance to
20、 the Information Sheet concurrently withcommittee comment.This addition, AGMA 904-C96, was approved by the TDEC on October 28, 1996.Suggestions for the improvement of this information sheet will be welcome. They should be sent to theAmerican Gear Manufacturers Association, 1500 King Street, Suite 20

30、orceUnits. The principaldepartureof SI from the previous gravimetric form of MetricEngineering Units is the separate and distinct unitsfor mass and force. In previous Metric Systems, thekilogramwasusedasbothaforceandmassunit.Technically, units should have been labeled askilogram - force or kilogram
31、- mass but it was com-monpracticetoignoresuchlabeling,whichoftenre-sulted in confusion as to whether mass or force wasintended. The same practice was true in the non-metricinch-poundsystemwherethepoundwasalsoused as both a mass or force unit and rarely labeled.In SI, the kilogram is restricted to th
32、e unit of mass.Thenewtonistheunitofforceandshouldbeusedinplace of kilogram-force. Likewise, the newton,instead of kilogram-force, should be used in com-bination units which include force.Example:Pressure or Stress (N/m2=Pa),Energy (NSm=J),andPower(NSm/s = m2kgSs- 3=W).Table 2-1Base UnitsQuantity Sym

Considerable confusion exists in theuse of the term weight as quantity to mean eithergravitational force or mass. In
44、 commercial andeveryday use, the term weight nearly always meansmass;thus,whenonespeaksofapersonsweight,thequantity referred to is mass.In science andtechnology, theterm weight of abodyhasusuallymeanttheforcethatifappliedtothebodywould give it an acceleration equal to the localacceleration of free f
45、all.Because of the dual use of the term weight as both aforce and a mass, this term should be avoided intechnical practice.Toensurecompleteunderstandingweshouldusethetermsmassandforceinplaceofweight.Itshouldbeunderstoodthatwherethetermweightisused in machine specifications, etc., it has meantmass an
46、d to provide clarity in these uses for thegeneral public we should specify mass followed byweight in parenthesis and specify the value in gramsor kilograms. Example: Machine mass (weight)1 500 kilograms.2.5.2 Mass. In engineering calculations involvingstructures,vehicles,ormachinesonthesurfaceofthee
47、arth, the mass in kilograms is multiplied by 9.8 toobtain the approximate force of gravity in newtons.(The force of gravity acting on a mass of 1 kilogramvaries from about 9.77 newtons to 9.83 newtons invarious parts of the world).2.6 Rules for Writing SI Symbols.2.6.1 SI Symbols (see Table 9-1 for
