Coreometer

/kɔriˈɑːmɪtər/ noun

Definition

An instrument used to measure the size, weight, or properties of a core, especially in manufacturing or quality control.

Etymology

From core + -meter (Greek metron meaning measure). Used in industrial settings to ensure precision.

Kelly Says

Modern coreometers use X-ray and digital imaging to measure cores non-destructively—quality control engineers can scan a casting core in seconds to catch defects before expensive metal is poured into a bad mold.
