Amatrol's measurement tools eLearning course covers important topics, such as:
SI Measurement
Learners begin with an introduction to SI measurement, including two systems of dimensional measurement, function and construction of a Machinist’s Rule, measurement accuracy and resolution, function and construction of a tape measure, and converting measurements between US Customary System and the SI Metric System. Learners will also practice skills, such as using a metric Machinist’s Rule to measure an outside length of a part, mastering a decimal-inch Machinist Rule, using a tape measure to measure a length, and converting between common fraction inches and decimals.
Precision Measurement Tools
Learners using Amatrol’s measurement tools eLearning course will study various aspects and components of precision measurement tools, including dial calipers, digital calipers, English micrometers, and metric micrometers. Individual lessons focus on topics like function of a dial caliper, how to use a digital caliper, function of a micrometer, and typical accuracy of an outside micrometer. Learners will also practice skills, such as calibrating a dial caliper, using a digital caliper to measure dimension of a part, mastering an outside micrometer graduated in English units, and using a micrometer to measure the outside diameter of a cylindrical part.
Dimensional Gauging
Learners will study various aspects and components of dimensional gauging, including an introduction to gauging, indicator measurement, and data collection. Individual lessons focus on topics like the importance of tolerance, function of two methods of gauging, how to use a digital indicator to measure a dimension, and three ways to collect process data. Learners will also practice skills, such as mastering a dial indicator, measuring a dimension using a dial indicator, collecting and displaying data using data acquisition software, and deleting a file.
