manufacturing

Industrial metrology is the science of measuring objects in manufacturing processes. It ensures products meet specifications, maintains quality, and detects defects for timely correction. 

Manufacturers use metrology to ensure the products you buy meet quality standards. Metrology provides behind-the-scenes quality control for many products you use daily.

Metrology in manufacturing helps ensure product consistency and accuracy. Critical components must precisely conform to function correctly. Measurements identify variations affecting performance, ensuring parts meet required standards and quality. For example, a small variation in a medical implant could cause it to fail, harming patients.

Types of Products

Industrial metrology applies across manufacturing, including:

  • Automotive – Engine, chassis, gear, and other component measurements check precision and accuracy for proper fit and performance in the cars you drive.
  • Aerospace – Jet engine blades, wings, fuselages, and components are measured to exacting tolerances, often micrometer-level, critical for performance and safety of aircraft.
  • Medical devices – Joint replacements, pacemakers, surgical tools require meticulous measurements confirming quality and consistency to avoid patient harm. Even small variations could risk patient harm.
  • Semiconductors – Metrology tools inspect wafers and chips during production, confirming circuit widths meet specifications that allow your computer to function properly.
  • Consumer products – Appliance and electronic measurements during manufacturing verify size, shape, and dimensional conformance, ensuring proper assembly and functionality of products you use daily.

Metrology applies to most manufactured products where quality, precision, and consistency are critical. Metrology tools match applications and specifications.

Metrology Systems

Advanced manufacturing metrology systems include:

  • Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) are high-precision measuring instruments using probes to precisely measure the shape and size of objects. Accurate to the micrometer level, CMMs are used for quality control inspection and reverse engineering.
  • Optical inspection systems use cameras and sensors to inspect surfaces for defects or specification deviations via non-contact measurements done quickly. Optical comparators and vision inspection systems are common examples.
  • 3D laser scanning systems use lasers to scan objects and create 3D models of the shape and size. The precision of laser scanning enables accurate measurements and reverse engineering. Portable scanners add flexibility.
  • X-ray computed tomography (CT) uses X-rays to produce detailed 3D images of internal structures, revealing defects while precisely measuring objects without damage.
  • Atomic force microscopy (AFM) uses tiny probes to measure surface microstructures at nanometer resolution.
  • Interferometry uses the interference of light waves to precisely measure shape, size, finish, flatness, parallelism, and other parameters.

When Used

Industrial metrology applies at key manufacturing stages:

  • Pre-production metrology involves measuring prototypes to confirm they meet specifications before full production begins. This verification ensures processes are capable of producing quality parts consistently.
  • In-process metrology includes periodic measurements during production to monitor precision, catch defects early, and provide equipment calibration feedback for adjustments.
  • Post-production metrology serves as final inspection confirming specifications were met. This quality control occurs before shipping products to consumers like you.

Ongoing periodic metrology testing helps maintain quality standards over time by identifying potential defects or process drift.

Precision metrology provides critical data at the right stages, confirming processes consistently meet specifications for performance and reliability. Ongoing metrology is vital for quality assurance.

Calibration Standards

To produce accurate measurements, metrology instruments must be calibrated based on trusted standards. This calibration establishes measurement traceability. Common calibration standards include:

  • Gage blocks are high precision blocks with parallel sides used to calibrate measurement devices. They are available in a range of imperial and metric sizes.
  • Master artifacts are precision objects of known dimensions. Different artifacts can calibrate for measurement of size, form, angles, straightness, threads, and more.
  • Laser interferometers use laser light to accurately measure distance. They calibrate instruments for linear displacement measurement.
  • Developed standards are customized in-house to allow calibrations tailored to meet a company’s specific process metrology needs.

Updating standards is essential. Inaccurate standards lead to imprecise measurements and potential defects. Metrology labs follow rigorous processes, ensuring integrity and traceability to recognized national and international standards.

Metrology Personnel

Qualified personnel operate, maintain, and analyze metrology systems:

  • Metrologists are scientists trained in measurement principles who establish metrology methods, procedures, and programs.
  • Quality assurance (QA) technicians conduct measurements and analyze results using metrology equipment to identify defects or variance from specifications.
  • Maintenance technicians are responsible for calibrating metrology systems and maintaining them in proper working order for accuracy.
  • Engineers work with metrology personnel and data to improve manufacturing processes. They identify needed adjustments to enhance product quality.

Metrology requires attention to detail and skilled use of sophisticated measurement instruments. Ongoing training develops expertise in measurement science and equipment operation. Math, statistics, and computing skills are also important for analyzing metrology data.

Is Industrial Metrology Critical?

Industrial metrology has an enormous impact on the quality, safety, and reliability of the products you use daily across many industries. Skilled metrologists using advanced tools serve as manufacturing’s “quality police”, providing objective data verifying consistent specification conformance. 

Without metrology, defects would multiply, performance would suffer, and product safety could be jeopardized. While you as the consumer rarely see these meticulous measurements, you benefit from the resulting product quality and reliability. When product performance integrity is critical for safety, industrial metrology’s vital role is clear.
