Course detail
Industrial Metrology
FSI-DPM-KAcad. year: 2023/2024
The course familiarizes the students with measuring devices and their applications. Attention is paid to metrological confirmation in production processes. Emphasis is placed on dimensional metrology, metrology of geometric tolerancing and texture of functional surfaces. Students will also master the basic methods of evaluating conformance to specifications in the ISO GPS system.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Exam: both written and oral, tests the knowledge of basic measurement methods, mainly their application on practical examples. It is graded on the ECTS grading scale.
Attendance in lectures is recommended. Attendance in exercises is compulsory. In case of regularly apologized student’s absence in the laboratory practice, the student may attend the laboratory practice together with other student team if agreed with the lecturer, or again in case of an apologized absence to participate in the alternative laboratory practice at the end of the semester.
Aims
The course allows the students to obtain knowledge on some basic measurement methods applicable in individual technologies. Students learn to solve and perform practical applications in service conditions.
