Bevel Protractor
Introduction
Bevel Protractor – Types, Construction & Working Principle [Explained with Complete
Details]: – A bevel protractor is an angle measuring tool that consists of a graduated circular
scale and a coloured arm. A protractor is a spherical or semi-circular device used to measure
an angle or circle in geometry. Normally, the units of measurement are degrees. Some
protractors are half-discs that date back to antiquity. The bevel protractor, for example, is a
more complex protractor with one or two swinging arms that help measure the angle.
The device can measure angles with a minimum count of 5′ or 5 minutes. It’s a tool for
determining the angles of any workpiece. It’s used for a variety of things, including jigs. The
bevel protractor is sometimes linked to the Vernier scale to get more accurate readings. In
mechanical architectural drawing, the bevel protractor is quite useful. The development of
software like CAD is diminishing the need for bevel protractors in general. Angles are
measured with bevel protractors. It’s employed in a wide range of mechanical and technical
applications.
