Measurement Tools training introduces the fundamentals principles of measurement including basic measurement, precision measurement, direct gauging, indirect gauging, and dimensional measurements using both the U.S. customary system as well as the S.I. metric system. Understanding how to perform accurate measurements is relevant to technical careers such as quality control inspector, machinist, manufacturing engineer, operations manager, and production technician. Students will apply fundamental measurement principles using industry-standard tools such as dial calipers, micrometers, and dial indicators to achieve accurate measurements that are essential to any technical career. This hands-on training helps students develop skills in measuring length, dimensions, and gauging while learning on precisely machined parts that challenge the learner to make accurate measurements. The measurement tools and precisely machined parts used in the training not only teach the learner how to use the tools properly, but also teaches the proper application and use of the various parts.
