SIGNIFICANT FACTORS IN CALIBRATION FOR 60 CALIPERS: A EXPERIMENTAL DATA

Caliper calibration is essential for accurate dimensional measurements, especially in precision-driven industries. This research investigates the significant factors affecting the calibration of 60 calipers through experimental data analysis. The study systematically examines environmental conditions, instrument design, operator techniques, and technological advances as potential contributors to measurement uncertainties. The temperature variations explored reveal environmental factor fluctuations in caliper dimensions and their influence on subsequent measurement uncertainties. It was also observed that analysis of caliper structural integrity, manufacturing tolerances and overall design explained their roles in measurement variability. Sources of variability were identified by tested operator techniques. Empirical data and mathematical modeling were used to quantify and understand the uncertainty factors identified in the study. The findings provide valuable insight into precision measurement and calibration, along with practical recommendations for improving caliper measurement reliability in industrial settings. The study informs calibration practices, advancing the pursuit of dimensional measurement accuracy.
