Ensure measurement accuracy
An essential service
When you weigh the fruit in the supermarket, or put gas in the car, you will want 1 kg to be 1 kg or 1 liter to 1 liter.
Or when you buy a medicine, you’ll want to be sure that the dosages of your ingredients have been set correctly.
Metrology is this: the guarantee that equipment that measures processes and physical phenomena (weight, volume, temperature, hardness, sound, light, chemical composition, …) do it correctly.
And this is done through specific and globally regulated processes, comparing the measurements of each equipment with standards of very high precision and proceeding with the calibration (adjustment) of the measuring equipment, so that they are as precise as they can be.
