Method
Visually inspect the instrument for damage, free movement and the condition of the internal jaw faces. For
micrometers, ensure the correct operation of the ratchet mechanism.
For Calipers, close the jaw faces and hold up to light to ensure the parallelism of the jaw faces. For
mechanical calipers and micrometers, check the zero
Allow instrument and the reference gauge blocks to stabilize in calibration environment for at least 3 hours.
Compare and record actual instrument readings to that of the calibration gauge blocks. Choose incremental
sizes to cover at least four positions over the working range of the instrument.
Record details of any adjustments made during the calibration.
