ID 473 · VDA Test Equipment Monitoring
Background and Topics
The quality of manufactured products or of services is monitored and controlled with test equipment. Thus, it is obvious that test processes also play a decisive role alongside manufacturing processes. Stable and consistently high quality can only be assured with suitable and reliable test equipment.
This two-day training acquaints the participants with the “functional area“ of metrology, and gives them an insight into practical and efficient test equipment management based on many examples and group exercises.
Target Audience
Personnel responsible for planning, selection, purchasing, approval and monitoring, as well as calibration of measurement and and test equipment, personnel from organisations manufacturing measurements equipment and from calibration laboratories.
Objectives
The focus is on teaching expert knowledge and competence to acquaint the participants with the necessary requirements for their work and how to implement them in practice. Topics are the basics of metrology, handling test equipment, structuring testing instructions and the validation of software. On the basis of current international standards and guidelines as well as the VDI and DKD guidelines, the participants are given valuable information for planning and conducting calibrations.
Concept and Methods
During this training, technical lectures, examples and group exercises alternate in order to support the transfer of the topics into the participants‘ own work environment with a particular focus on exchanging experiences between participants and the trainer.
Prerequisites for Attendance
Basic knowledge of metrology and measurement system analysis.
Certificate of Attendance
At the end of this training course, participants will receive a certificate of attendance.
