IMPORTANT UPDATE RELEASE nr. 2 Dial gauges

No changes for DIN 878 (Oct 1983), DIN 879 (Jun 1999), DIN 2270 (1985) (Germany), UNI 4180, UNI 9954 (Italy), IS : 2967 (India) or NF-E-11 (France).

New standards have been defined for inductive gauges and for edge finder gauges. Recent added formulas for calculations of dial gauges refer to:

New standards (India) for dial gauges IS : 2092-1983 and lever dial gauges IS : 11498-1985

New standards have been defined for edge finding gauges.

A new procedure defines the maximum tolerance admitted every 10 divisions. Before it was only for 1, 5 graduation, 50% of one revolution and 100% of one revolution.

A new procedure contains evaluation and tolerancing of both sensitivity and linearity in the measuring range.

In particular, there is now a limitation of the linearity, after adjustment of sensitivity.

ANSI/ASME introduced repeatibiliy check at 25%, 50% and 75% of measuring range, and a set of tolerances after the 1.turn, between 2 and 10 turns, between 10 and 20 turns, and for more than 20 turns.

Analysis of deviation is performed, in both directions (positive or negative deviation) after one turn, after two turns, between 2 and 10 turns, between 10 and 20 turns, and for more than 20 turns.

Korean norms introduces a set of tolerances for short or long range, and a specific related tolerance for T neighboring. Also the increment for short and long range is standardized.

Update of standards for micrometers and actual status - November 2011

IMPORTANT UPDATE RELEASES

There have been recently updates in calibration standards, involving different types of length measuring instruments, such as:

1. micrometers

2. dial gauges

3. plain gauges (bth plug and ring gauges)

4. parallel thread gauges (bth plug and ring gauges)

5. verniers

6. taper thread gauges

7. spline gauges

It is important to update the calibration procedures used by calibration labs and metrology departments, if in-site calibration is performed.

Let's have a look here at the most relevant changes.

These BS standard have been reviewed.

Finnish Quality Innovation Prize 2010 - Tarja Halonen tunnustas Eesti ettevõtteid Kvaliteediinnovatsiooni auhinnaga

Tarja Halonen tunnustas Eesti ettevõtteid Kvaliteediinnovatsiooni auhinnaga

Tervisliku Piima Biotehnoloogiate Arenduskeskus OÜ ja Feanor OÜ võitsid täna õhtul Soomes Kvaliteediinnovatsiooni auhinna. Eritunnustuse pälvis AS Vähiuuringute Tehnoloogia Arenduskeskus.

Soome presidendi Tarja Haloneni osalusel anti täna õhtul Helsingis, rahvusvahelisel kvaliteedipäeval, Soome kvaliteediauhinna galal Eesti ettevõtetele üle kvaliteediinnovatsiooni auhinnad.

„Õnnitlen võitjaid! Teie saavutus on kiiduväärt mitmes mõttes. Esiteks annab see tõestust selle kohta, et ettevõtluse ja teaduse koostöö on viljakandev. Samas olete teistele eeskujuks seetõttu, et saavutasite tunnustuse rahvusvahelisel konkursil, sest Eesti ettevõtluse rahvusvahelistumine peab saama argipäevaks,“ sõnas majandus- ja kommunikatsiooniminister Juhan Parts. „Jäite silma oma ala rahvusvahelistele spetsialistidele, kes on selle auhinnaga öelnud, et teie koduturuks võib juba homme olla kogu maailm.“

Tervisliku Piima Biotehnoloogiate Arenduskeskusele tõi Kvaliteediinnovatsiooni auhinna uudne Eestis leiutatud ja kliiniliselt katsetatud vererõhku alandav mikroobitüvi TENSIA ning Feanor OÜ-le freesimise terad, mis aitavad saavutada märkimisväärset aja- ja ressursisäästu.

Feanor OU

Feanor OÜ partner UFP recently acquired a new tool-grinding facility beneath Beretta plant, close to Brescia, Italy.
This will allow us to work now really 'side by side' with Beretta, one of the few Europena companies with more than 500 years uninterrupted manufacturing history, including cutting tool grinding and development also for Maryland, US plant. http://www.berettadefence.com


Feanor OÜ partner UFP omandas hiljuti uue rajatise Beretta tehase all Brescias, Itaalias, mis valmistab ja teritab erilisi löikeriistu.
See võimaldab meil töötada tõepoolest "kõrvuti" koos Berettaga, üks vähestest Euroopa ettevõtet ajalooga rohkem kui 500 aastat. UFP toodangut kasutavad muuhulgas ka Marylandi tehas USAs. http://www.berettadefence.com
