Key information

Testing and measurement technology is an essential part of many industries and processes. It comprises various procedures and devices used to check and measure the physical properties, quality characteristics and performance parameters of products or materials.

The main objective is to ensure compliance with specifications, quality standards and regulatory requirements in order to guarantee product quality and optimize process performance. These techniques are used in areas such as manufacturing, the automotive industry, medical technology, electronics and environmental protection.

Test and measurement technology encompasses a variety of methods and devices, from mechanical measuring devices such as calipers and micrometers to electronic and optical measuring devices such as oscilloscopes, microscopes and spectrometers. It plays a crucial role in quality assurance by detecting and correcting deviations at an early stage, which helps to improve product quality and reduce rejects and rework.

The continuous development of new technologies such as 3D printing, artificial intelligence and IoT is leading to innovative approaches and methods in testing and measurement technology that can enable even more accurate and efficient inspection and measurement.
