DIMENSIONAL CALIBRATION TECHNIQUEOn Dial Gauge and Dial Test Indicator

(Concept & Practical)(3 Days Training)

Introduction

Metrology is the science of measurement that is included all theoretical and practical aspects ofmeasurement. There are an infinite number of measurements are made every day in the world,especially in trade, industry, and scientific laboratories. The measurement results can be used to knowthe properties of the certain phenomenon in our daily live. A parameter under measurement can beeither a physical parameter (Physical Metrology) or an analytical or chemical parameter (ChemicalMetrology). The measurement based on the application of the measurement result leads to threebranches of metrology; there are legal metrology, industrial metrology, and scientific metrology. In thefield of scientific metrology, there are three types of laboratories; calibration laboratory, testinglaboratory and research & development laboratory.

All measurements made in calibration laboratories are using some type of testing andmeasuring instruments, such as reference measuring instruments, standard chemicals, and certifiedreference materials. A measurement result is valid only if it has been made with a measuringinstrument that has been calibrated.

Calibration is the process of ensuring the integrity accuracy of measuring instruments that isthe accuracy of a measuring instrument compares with an appropriately calibrated laboratory referencestandard. The process of calibration not just ensures the traceability of measurement results to nationalstandards but also the measurements of uncertainties have to identify for the measurements are made.

The calibration process is also sometimes called the calibration system, which has been definedas the collection of operations, procedures, device for measuring and other equipment, software, andpersonnel used to assign a number to the characteristics being measured, then this complete processused to obtain the measurement result. Calibration systems are used to verify that instruments ormaterials meet the requirements. This is an important activity used the measurement results to justifythat instruments or materials are complying with their specifications.

The calibration laboratory objective or fulfil customer satisfaction can be achieved by properlaboratory management system and competency on the calibration skill. These requirements can bereferred ISO/IEC 17025: General requirements for the competence of testing and calibrationlaboratories, and SAMM (Laboratory Accreditation Scheme of Malaysia) that is cover managementand technical requirements for calibration laboratory. The international standard methods of calibrationpublished by ASME, ASTM, BS, JIS, MS, NIST and so on is available as references for competencyon calibration skill.

The fulfilments of these requirements, the laboratory shall have appropriate guidelines inmanagement, calibration techniques, documentation, and control of records or data and so on. One ofthe most importance documents is standard operating procedure that may cover the step by step toperform calibration and calculation of measurement errors and uncertainties.

Dimensional Metrology or dimensional measurement is using physical measurementequipment to quantify the physical size of or distance from any given object. Dimensionalmeasurement requires the use of a variety of physical scales to determine the dimension, with the mostcommon tools are calipers, micrometers, dial test indicator, height gauges, measuring scopes and soon, and for three-dimensional measurement such as coordinate measuring machine up to be mostaccurate at these being laser interferometers. The end of this measurement traceability is defined as thelength of the path traveled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792, 458 of a second. Itis no longer defined as a material artifact and unit is meter or “m”.

Dial Gauge and Dial Test Indicator are one-dimensional measuring device and commonly usedin the industrial. The Dial Gauge can be measured the length up to 100mm, whereas Dial TestIndicator just measures the small length normally used to measure flatness and parallelism of a surface.The best discriminations for Dial Gauge and Dial Test Indicator are 10 micrometer and 1 micrometerrespectively for analog type, but for the digital or electronic type may have better discriminations. Thecalibration characteristics for these small tools are the discrimination, repeatability, adjacent errors andretrace errors of the linear travelling. The main factors for making quality of measurement results byusing these instruments is shall comply with Abbe’s law. When we rely on results of measurement,these factors must be established before making any measurement.

Scope

The national and international metrology organization and discipline of metrology may beclassified into legal, industrial, and scientific categories depending upon the application ofmeasurement results. The types of laboratories that are depending on their function, especiallycalibration laboratory will be introduced in this training.

This training provides knowledge of the calibration systems such as measurement traceability,measurement uncertainty, proficiency test to determine the uniformity of calibration performance,calibration procedures, method and technical skill to perform calibration follow metrologicalrequirements such as selection of appropriate reference standard instruments, collection data,calculation of errors and measurement uncertainty, recording calibration condition, preparationcalibration certificate and so on.

This training covers general knowledge of dimensional metrology tools as per mention of theabove. The maintenance and calibration, measurement awareness that includes the concept ofmeasurement, methods & technical skill to perform calibration, control of measurement errors and useMicrosoft Excel to document measurement uncertainties.

The references use in this training are ISO/IEC 17025, SAMM, JIS B7503 and BS 907. Thereference standards used for these calibrations are Precision Calibration Tester or Optimar 100 andgranite surface plate. The ranges of these units under calibration are 10mm for Dial Gauge and 1mmfor Dial Test Indicator.
