Selecting the Best Gauge Block Calibration Frequency
• Gauge block calibration involves comparing readings to a reference standard.
• Factors like usage frequency, environmental conditions, and sector requirements influence calibration.
• International bodies like ISO and NIST establish calibration standards.
• Optimal calibration frequency depends on usage frequency, environmental conditions, industry requirements, and equipment's historical performance.
• Calibration frequency may need to increase for frequently used gage blocks due to potential wear and tear.
• Calibration standards ensure accuracy, consistency, and early detection of issues.
