Metrology is science considering measurement Categories: Scientific deals with organization and development of etalons and their conservation(highest level) Industrial deals with function of measuring devices used in industry in manufacturing and testing processes Legal deals with precision of measurement in situations where the exact measurement is necessary for justice of economic transactions, health and security
Fields of metrology: Weight Electricity Length Time and frequency Thermometry Ion radiation and radioactivity Volume Acoustic measurements Etc.
Continuity Is property of measured value or etalon value that can express the relation to reference on national or international level. This relationship is expressed through an uninterupted chain of relationships between components where the unceratainity is known.
Unit definition International etalons National etalons Home national etalons Foreign national etalons Reference etalones Company etalones Etalons are changing with development of science Length etalon - meter 1795 bar made of brass 1799 bar made of platinum and iridium 1960-1 650 763,73 times the wave length of radiation that is equal to transition of electron from quantum level 2p10 to level 5d5 in Cryptonium-86 1983 distance reached by light in time of 1/299 792 458 second. Measurement
Basic procedure for securing the continuity of measurement is the calibration. Calibration is aquiring metrological characteristics of measuring device. This is made by referencing them to etalones. Reasons for calibration: 1) To secure that the value measured by the device is same as to another device or method 2) To secure the measured value is correct 3) To secure the reliability of measuring device.
Direct measuring device measures directly the wanted quantity or property Indirect measuring device measures another quantity or property from that the wanted quantity or property can be calculated or derived
Absolute I acquire directly a value of quantity or property Comparatory I acquire the difference between the etalon and the measured value only

threepin method gauges thread snap gauge microscope Micrometer Problem is that the thread si too complex to be measured. And also that the diameters are not recognizable on the part Nominal diameter (Major and minor diameter)
Indirect measurement we measure the Diameter over pins and we can calculate from it the nominal diameter
For pitch measurement Gauge is placed to the thread

Task: Measure the spacing R (distance between center points) of clamping holes in the spring plate. Use the profile projector for the measurement.
Measure and write down the coordinates of tangents of measured holes! Attention! micrometrix thread has two revolutions per milimeter Ring scale division is 50 scales. Carefully read if you see the half-milimeter line on the main scale + add the value from the ring.
