Laboratory of Calibration

What is it ?Measurement standardIt is a reference, with a value and an uncertainty, to which one compares to establish the accuracy and traceability of its results.The lower the uncertainty of the standard, the better its quality. We go from the working standard (high uncertainty) to the primary standard (very low uncertainty). A CALIBRATIONIt is the […]
