Decision Rules - Our Top 10 Recommended Reading Many people struggle with decision rules and implementing decision rules. At Morehouse, we have been privileged to be part of the Metrology Handbook 3rd Edition, where we helped write a chapter on decision rules. Though it was an honor to write that and other chapters, there are […]
Morehouse MURA Metrology Chatbot Morehouse has launched our Metrology Chatbot. The bot is found on our website and is active on every page. The major advantage of our MURA (Measurement Uncertainty Resource Assistant) is it is trained using all of the material from our website and more. See our official press release here. This might […]
Shackle Load Pin Morehouse is well known in the industry for calibrating loadcells of all types to the highest accuracy. And for 50 years, we have scratched our heads at the poor performance of load pins compared to all other types of loadcells. Even the slightest change in loading conditions causes drastic changes in load […]
Treatment of Zero in Determining Deflections – ASTM Method B Interpolated Zero Reduction Methods In calibration, many disciplines take multiple calibration points between the initial zero and the ending zero. What is the standard method for reducing the zero readings from the raw data recorded? When we started asking some contacts at National Metrology Institutes […]
My Load Cell Calibration Does Not Match What the Certificate Says Being in the business of calibrating force and torque instruments means you will run across scenarios where the equipment sent in for calibration performs differently than the last calibration. You might also run into a situation where the end-user does some checks on their […]
5 Essential Facts About Torque Calibration Torque Calibration is essential because almost any fastener has a specification for torque. The purpose is to maintain a clamping force where the fastener stays together and is as immune as possible to fatigue. This article will discuss the five essential must-know facts about torque calibration. We will cover […]
Load cells are devices used to measure the weight or force, applied to them and used in a wide range of applications, from weighing scales to industrial equipment. Most of the load cells supplied by Morehouse are used as calibration standards, either as reference standards to calibrate other standards, or as field standards to calibrate […]
Why is Force Measurement Important? Here at Morehouse, we have been in the business of measuring forces for almost 100 years. We are a small company of fewer than 40 employees who strive to create great force measuring products used in several industries to make the world safer for everyone. Though, when asked what we […]
What can happen when we use an accuracy specification and assume all the measurements are centered in relation to the specification limits? It is a typical problem in the metrology community, where many papers assume a centered process or Measurement. When the Measurement deviates from the true value, it is said to have a bias […]
