Course Description:

Measurement Tools 1 introduces basic measurement, precision measurement tools, and dimensional gauging. Learners will cover concepts such as S.I. Measurement, U.S. Customary Measurements, Tape Measure and Measurement Conversion. Applications taught include using a dial caliper, digital caliper, English micrometer, and metric micrometer. Dimensional Gauging will include an introduction to gauging as well as indicator measurement and data collection. Measurement Tools 1 provides an overview of concepts in control chart analysis and operation, geometric dimensioning and toleranceing, and location, orientation, and form tolerances.
