Measurement & Calibration

Course Objectives

This training provides knowledge of the two main metrological requirements for a calibration system that is measurement traceability and measurement uncertainty. Besides that, it covers the selection of appropriate instruments to perform a measurement or calibration, and evaluate the results and interpret the calibration certificates, and then a proficiency test to determine the uniformity of calibration performance.

Get to know the National and International organization of metrology and its function.
Understand the principle concepts in measurement and calibration.
Know the type of measurement errors and precautions about these errors.
Understand Measurement traceability from product or service of measurements to SI Base units.
Realize measurement uncertainty that is a mandatory requirement in calibration for accredited laboratory.
Follow the evaluation of measurement uncertainty and its basic calculation.
Interpret contain the measurement results and calibration certificates.
Justified the proper way of selection, calibration, check and care of dimensional metrology instruments.
Understand the usage of calibration certificates and the function of accreditation laboratories.
Use test uncertainty ratio, TUR to set a simple acceptance criterion and understand decision rules for acceptance of calibration device.

Target Audience

Any individual involving Metrology, working in the quality lab, calibration lab, or anyone supporting the functions of measurement and calibration labs and all persons at any level using measurement instruments. This can include managers, technicians, engineers, inspectors, operators, lecturers, administrative support personnel etc. It can serve as a refresher for experienced technicians; or it can be used in orientation for new hires.
