JIS B 0642:2010 PDF Download

This Standard specifies the general requirements, terms and definitions, and design and metrological characteristics of GPS measuring equipment, e.g. micrometers, dial gauges, callipers, height gauges, gauge blocks and it forms the basis for other related standards for measuring equipment.

It does not necessarily exclude more complicated equipment.

It also gives guidance for the development and content of standards for GPS measuring equipment.

This Standard is intended to ease the communication between manufacturer (supplier) and user (customer) and to make the specification phase of GPS measuring equipment more accurate.

This Standard is also intended as a tool to be used in companies in the process of defining and selecting relevant characteristics for measuring equipment to be used in the quality assurance of measuring processes, i.e. in calibration and in workpiece measurements.
