METROMEET 2005 confirms the good health of metrology

01/06/2005

2005 METROMEET, International Conference on Industrial Dimensional Metrology, was held in Bilbao on 7 and 8 April 2005 organized by Innovalia Association.

The industrial dimensional metrology is a specialty of great importance in the industry in general but especially in the manufacture, dimensions and geometry of the components of a product are essential features of the same. In addition, among other reasons, the production of the various components must be dimensionally homogeneous, so that they are interchangeable, even when they are manufactured on different machines, different plants, in different companies or, even, in different countries.

We can define the industrial dimensional metrology as the technological activity, dedicated to the collection of information and further processing, which has as objective the assessment of the conformity of industrial products with their specifications technical - dimensional.

Dimensional metrology includes the measurement of all those properties to be determined by the unit of length, as for example distance, position, diameter, roundness, flatness, roughness, etc. The length is one of the base of the international system of units (SI) quantity. The embedded software is a crucial sector whose economic importance grows day by day. Software, incorporated into a machine works by itself alone, without the need for interaction of any person. This type of software is a constant both in our homes (mobile phones, cars, ovens, washing machines...) as in other areas (planes, trains, systems of fire and control lighting, input devices for hotels..)

Professor Robert Schmitt, of the famed University RWTH WZL of Aachen noted "weights and measures is the key factor of productivity"

In this environment, during the two-day Conference, the attendees could hear 22 papers, 2 keynote lectures and a tutorial taught by professionals from 12 different countries.

The Innovalia Association, expressed its satisfaction with the favorable response of the industry and warned of the need to promote meetings to promote the interaction between experts in the sector, because as concluded at Metromeet own Professor Robert Schmittof the famed University RWTH WZL of Aachen "weights and measures is the key factor in productivity."

The Technical Committee, chaired by Jesus Maria de la Maza, Vice-President of IACMM (Association International of manufacturers of machines coordinate measurement), was pleased by the welcome that took this initiative in the international industry.
