Outside Micrometer Record Form

In order to take a measurement with an outside micrometer, the user must ensure the measuring device is in compliance with the precise calibration standards of the trade.

The Outside Micrometer Record Mobile App can note basic details and procedures to make a full evaluation for each calibration. There are several components involved in the standards requirements and the maximum allowance for deviation. With this app, an engineer may record basic details including the type of device used, the temperature, and the calibration date and technician completing the calibration. The user will indicate the calibration interval, the calibration procedure, and the serial number of the tool. The user will record data from a four-step process, checking first if the anvil and thimble and the ratchet pass inspection and then, recording standard value and the measured value of the anvil and rod.

A figure drawing of the parts of an outside micrometer including the locking lever, thimble, and ratchet is included. The tool will calculate the standard deviation and graph measurements recorded. This app will promote a consistent process for calibration and record-keeping for ensuring an outside micrometer maintains its efficacy as a measuring device. This app can be also be customized to include the unique fields you need for your jobs, such as inspector's name, unit of measurement, compliance irregularities, defects or suggested repairs in the Outside Micrometer tool.

Since this software builds electronic records that replace paper forms, this process can be performed with a higher rate of efficiency. And, it can be accessed in the field with a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet. When completed, this app generates a report in PDF form that can be forwarded to a supervisor. A copy is stored in your GoCanvas account for your records. It allows you to follow-up on the status of corrective actions and work orders.
