EDU-K210: Calibration of Calipers

Seminar V111 is taught in the Mitutoyo Institute of Metrology’s Training Lab in Aurora, IL and broadcast live in a virtual session. The course combines modern calibration and quality management ideas with best practices and “how-to” calibration methods for common calibrations of micrometers and calipers.

EDUB-110 BUNDLE includes the 1-day EDU-101: Introduction to dimensional metrology hand tools I, the 2-day EDU-113: Hands-on dimensional gage calibration, and the 1-day EDU-301: Small tool repair courses.

EDUB-105 BUNDLE includes the 2-day EDU-113: Hands-on dimensional gage calibration and the 1-day EDU-301: Small tool repair courses.

An online test is available that covers the material found in EDU-K100. The test has around 50 multiple choice and true/false questions, covering general metrology concepts and the calibration of micrometers and calipers. 

To demonstrate your hands-on skills in micrometer and caliper calibration, and to earn the Level 2 Certified Credential, Mitutoyo America has developed a suite of three proficiency tests. There are two tests using outside micrometers – one small and one big – and the third test using a caliper. These tests involve measuring standards with the size kept secret from the participant – the goal is to demonstrate you have the skills to measure and calibrate correctly.

Seminar #114 is a unique, active, educational experience designed specifically for those who plan and perform calibrations of dimensional measuring tools, gages, and instruments.

Seminar #113 covers key principles in gage calibrations. Such as, selection of calibration methods, use of appropriate reference standards, reporting of results, and traceability. Students will cover the most common dimensional calibrations, including micrometers, specialty micrometers, micrometer standards, calipers, dial indicators, test indicators, digital indicators, and height gages. This is a condensed version of Seminar 114 (3-day version).
