Course detail

Practical Metrology

FSI-XPT-KAcad. year: 2024/2025

This course discusses metrology in the Czech Republic, EU and in the World. Students are familiarized with the measurement principles in detail with emphasis on the practical aspects of dimensional control, geometric tolerances and surface texture evaluation. Special emphasis is devoted to the issue of 3-D measurement and software support of metrological processes in the ISO GPS system.

Entry knowledge

The basic knowledge of engineering technology, the knowledge of secondary school mathematics and the bases of statistics.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

The course-unit credits award is based on attendance at seminars, correct elaboration of computational assignment and active participation in its processing.
The final exam will be composed of written and oral part. It is graded on the ECTS grading scale.
Attendance at lectures is voluntary, however recommended. 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

Familiarize the students with concepts in metrology and with techniques in correlation to measurement and measurement methods.
Theoretical knowledge in metrology obtained in the lectures. Practical knowledge of measurement obtained in exercies, elaboration of measured variables in compliance with geometrical requirements on the products (GPS).
