Masters and Standards

Masters and standards are essential concepts in metrology. They provide a point of reference against which other measuring devices are compared if you're using metrology devices in an industry where precise measurements are essential, and a low tolerance for error, masters, and standards can give you confidence that your CMM calibration is correct.

Key Benefits

Using masters and standards gives you confidence in your measuring equipment and takes human error out of the equation. It can:

  • Ensure measurement accuracy. Comparing your measurements against a standard ensures you're getting accurate results consistently.
  • Reduce equipment downtime. Masters and standards make it easy to calibrate equipment quickly so it's ready to be re-deployed.
  • Comply with industry standards (e.g., ISO, NIST). Accurate, high-precision coordinate measuring machines can help you maintain high-quality control standards and prove compliance.
