Calibration of Dimensional Measuring instruments and Evaluation of Measurement uncertainties
28 to 29 October, 2021,
In any manufacturing activity, obtaining credible, dependable, correct and traceable measurements is one of the basic requirements in order to achieve required levels of product quality. No measurement is exact and every measurement is subject to some uncertainty. 'Uncertainty of measurement' is the doubt that exists about the result of any measurement. A measured value is only complete if it is accompanied by a statement of associated uncertainty. Measurement uncertainties can occur from the measuring instrument, from the part/component being measured, from environment, from the operator, and/or from other sources. Use of good practices such as reliable calibration equipment, traceable refe

Surface Roughness Measurement, Validation and Improvement
17 to 18 November, 2021,
In the precision engineering industry, the functional properties of a component are affected by the boundary areas (or the surface) of the component. This aspect becomes all the more important when the surface comes in contact with the surface of the mating component and is operationally related to it. The unceasing demand for increased performance, interchangeability and functional reliability has resulted in shrinking of tolerances for a precision component. As the tolerances shrink the surface aspects of the component become more and more dominant and the dimensional aspects of surface finish become exceedingly important. A serious quantitative study of the quality of a surface becomes an
