3, 2, 1, Contact Measuring Thickness
George Schuetz
Thickness is one of the most frequently measured dimensions, and one that’s very easy to understand. So, you might think that someone would come up with a one-style-fits-all measurement approach that’s good for just about every kind of thickness application. But it just isn’t so. There are many approaches to measuring thickness, depending on the requirements of the part. Some of the most common…

What NIST’s Most Popular Reference Materials Tell Us About the Science of Measurement

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. Better references mean better measurements.
