At Micron we offer a number of training courses. They
can be set up to suit single individuals or numbers from, larger organizations
or groups of companies.
An appreciation of the gauge control requirements
under QS9000, with an overview and examples of sources of errors in measurements,
including: Repeatability, Reproducibility, Stability, Linearity, Uncertainty
of Measurement and Calibration.
The what, when and where of calibration, covering
the fundamentals such as traceability, certification (including UKAS
/ UKAS accreditation), records, frequency of calibration and standards.
A hands on approach to simple calibration on instruments
such as micrometers, vernier gauges, height gauges & plain plugs
A two to five-day course covering more advanced
techniques, which may include thread gauges, surface tables and plates,
projectors, torque wrenches, pressure gauges and electrical instruments.
A one or two-day course which considers inspection
measurements from the view-point of the feature rather than the measuring
equipment. This approach stimulates delegates to consider what is to be
measured and the suitability of equipment, reducing the risk of wrongly
passing or failing components.
A guide to understanding the symbols and terminology.
More advanced courses can include measurement techniques and detailed
discussion of drawings.
Anyone involved in the inspection or calibration
process.
There is no minimum qualification, however, delegates should be familiar
with common inspection equipment.
Basic guide notes are included. However, delegates may wish to make their
own additional notes.
Each delegate is awarded an attendance certificate upon completion of
the course.
These are bespoke courses, generally for six to twelve delegates, with
exercises and group discussion. Most courses are one day long, with "Brief"
half-day introductions offered as an alternative for those on a tight
budget or time-scale. The advanced courses are best run over two to five
days.
To gain maximum benefit from this course, we advise running it at your
site. This minimises travelling, reduces costs and also removes the need
to transport equipment and components. Using your drawings, equipment
and components also enhances the benefit of the training.
The final cost depends on the complexity, length and location. Please
