    Description
    This is an intermediate mechanical inspection or metrology. Metrology is the science of measurement and related terminology. The course covers a review of the systems of measurement, tolerances, and statistics as related to metrology. Advanced measurement methods using graduated scales, vernier, and micrometer instruments are also covered in this course. This course introduces advanced measurement methods, including comparison, reference planes, angle measurement, surface, pneumatic measurement, optical measurement, and high amplification comparators. The role of Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) is also discussed. Principles learned in this course are applied in lab applications simulating real-world design and manufacturing problems. This course is intended for individuals pursuing career pathways related to advanced manufacturing and product development, with an emphasis on quality control.
