Metrology and the Consequences of Bad Measurement Decisions by Scott Mimbs This paper was initially published in Test Magazine and is being shared as one of the essential documents we believe anyone making measurements should read. In the simplest terms, measurements are made to support decisions. Measurement data support decisions to: • Establish research or […]
The Pros and Cons of Load Cell Simulator Calibration: Is Interchangeability Worth It? We have been asked more frequently about the benefits of calibrating everything as a system versus calibrating the load cells and indicators separately and intermixing them using a calibrated load cell simulator. Being able to intermix any load cell and meter combination […]
Henry Zumbrun, President of Morehouse Instrument Company, explores the complex world of decision rules in metrology with an unconventional twist. His article, "The Force of Decision Rules: Applying Specific and Global Risk to Star Wars," featured in the January issue of Quality Magazine, uses the Star Wars saga to shed light on the subject. In […]
Continuous Improvement in the Cal Lab What if people could improve at a rate of 1 % per day? In approximately 70 days, they would be twice as effective at their job, and in 365 days, they would be 37.78343 times better. In reality, 1 % better is not going to amount to much. For […]
