Abstract
This measurement & gaging program begins with an introduction to the core
concepts regarding measurement. These concepts include: precision, resolution,
accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility. Standards are then addressed, featuring
sections on gage blocks and surface plates. This program then focuses on the
array of measurement & gaging tools, arranging them into three categories:
non-graduated measurement & gaging tools, graduated measurement & gaging
tools, and advanced measurement & gaging tools. The non-graduated measurement
& gaging tools section features tools and gages that are used to transfer
measurements to or from graduated measurement tools, or as pass/fail comparisons
to standards. The graduated measurement & gaging tools section highlights
the use of tools, such as vernier calipers, micrometers, and tools using dial
indicators and electronic digital readouts. The advanced measurement & gaging
tools section focuses on optical measurement projectors, vision systems and
coordinate measurement machines.
