Measurement, in its most basic form, is about comparing the thing you want to measure with a reference. To measure the length of a table, you compare it to a tape measure. To measure flour for a birthday cake, you compare it to a measuring cup.
In the first two episodes of The Quality Digest Roadshow, we looked at the evolution and use of dimensional measurement and measurement standards.
Modern industrial and infrastructure environments are becoming larger, more complex, and more geographically dispersed. As facilities expand, internal audit teams face increasing pressure to deliver accurate, defensible findings within limited time frames.
Timeless design, meticulous craftsmanship, and connection to the past: There are many reasons why classic cars are enduringly popular. Reverse engineering has brought them within reach of more people than ever before.
Vibration-related failures in aerospace involve satellites, launch vehicles, and aircraft components that are expensive to replace.
Building gold-standard AI systems requires gold-standard AI measurement science—the scientific study of methods used to assess AI systems’ properties and effects.
Ultralarge hydraulic excavators for international open-pit mining are the core specialty of Komatsu Germany GmbH—Mining Division.
Temperature compensation
As production tolerances become ever tighter, and the error margin for measurement results constantly shrinks, temperature fluctuation is an issue that users may need to consider in their inspection process.
NIST researcher Jack Glover holds a test object for millimeter-wave imaging systems—scanners that are used to check passengers in many airport security lines.
If you’ve flown in the U.S. in recent years, you’re probably familiar with the airport security experience of entering a booth, raising your hands above your head, and having a machine check your body. That machine is called a millimeter wave scanner.
