Screw Gauge Calibration in Bangladesh

Screw gauges, also known as micrometers, are precision instruments widely used to measure small dimensions accurately in manufacturing, engineering, and laboratory settings. Ensuring their accuracy is critical for quality control and maintaining production standards. Screw gauge calibration in Bangladesh has become increasingly important for industries seeking precision and compliance with international standards.

Why Screw Gauge Calibration is Important

Screw gauges are designed to measure dimensions with high precision, often up to 0.01 mm or 0.001 inches. However, regular use can lead to wear and tear, mechanical drift, or environmental factors like temperature fluctuations affecting measurement accuracy. Without proper calibration:

• Products may not meet quality specifications.

• Errors in measurement can lead to production wastage.

• Compliance with industrial standards becomes difficult.

Calibration ensures that screw gauges provide reliable measurements by comparing them against a known standard and adjusting them if necessary. It not only enhances measurement accuracy but also extends the lifespan of the instrument.

Calibration Process for Screw Gauges

The calibration of a screw gauge typically involves the following steps:

1. Cleaning the Instrument: Dust, oil, and dirt can affect accuracy. A clean screw gauge ensures consistent readings.

2. Visual Inspection: Check for mechanical damage or wear in the spindle, anvil, and thimble.

3. Zero Error Check: Close the micrometer without a test object and check if it reads zero. If not, the zero error is recorded.

4. Test with Gauge Blocks: Precision gauge blocks with known dimensions are used to verify the micrometer’s accuracy across its measurement range.

5. Adjustment: If discrepancies are found, adjustments are made according to manufacturer instructions to correct errors.

6. Documentation: Calibration certificates are issued, noting the instrument’s performance, calibration date, and due date for the next calibration.

Types of Screw Gauges Calibrated

Different types of screw gauges require specific calibration approaches. Common types include:

• Outside Micrometers: Used for measuring external dimensions like the diameter of a rod or thickness of a sheet.

• Inside Micrometers: Designed to measure internal dimensions, such as the diameter of a hole.

• Depth Micrometers: Used for measuring the depth of slots or holes.

Pico Labs Ltd. offers calibration services for all types of screw gauges, ensuring each instrument meets international measurement standards.

Calibration Standards and Accuracy

In Bangladesh, calibration services often follow ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 standards, ensuring high-quality measurements traceable to international benchmarks. Proper calibration allows industries in Bangladesh to compete globally by meeting precise engineering and manufacturing requirements.

• ISO 9001: Focuses on quality management systems.

• ISO/IEC 17025: Specifies the general requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.

By adhering to these standards, companies minimize production errors, maintain quality assurance, and ensure customer satisfaction.
