Measurement and Calibration Requirements for Quality Assurance to ISO 9000

Based on ISO 9000, the latest international quality assurance standard now adopted by industry in Britain and around the world, this book is a guide to the regulations controlling the calibration of measuring equipment and how to implement them. The author’s approach is to present the subject of quality assurance, then introducing the problems concerned with product quality and the interpretation of the imposed requirements and standards involved. This is followed with a discussion of the measurement and calibration procedures and equipment necessary for the operation of the mechanisms for assessing the sources of measurement error and quantifying their effect. A series of separate chapters is then devoted to each of the commonly measured quality-related quantities This new title is an updated version of Measurement and Calibration for Quality Assurance (1991), based on the now obsolete British Standard BS 5750.
