Essential skills for several trades

Proper selection and adequate handling of common measuring instruments such as tape measures, rules, protractors, calipers, micrometers and various gages can be challenging for beginners in dimensional metrology. This is even more the case when various types of reading scales and systems of units must be understood.

The basic dimensional metrology equipment set offers a structured, systematic introduction to concepts, instruments, and techniques related to dimensional metrology. Developing skills in interpreting technical drawings and making measurements is particularly important for machinists, CNC machine operators, millwrights, and workers involved in quality assurance activities.
