# Metrology Technician
|
|
|
|
Metrology technicians apply their practical knowledge of metrology to calibrate measuring instruments, test equipment and analyse their performance. They ensure that the evaluated equipment meets requirements for precision, performance and accuracy. They report about their work and advise on technical matters concerning measuring instruments.
|
|
|
|
## Core workflow
|
|
|
|
1. Analyze test data to identify defects or determine calibration requirements.
|
|
2. Attend conferences, workshops, or other training sessions to learn about new tools or methods.
|
|
3. Calibrate devices by comparing measurements of pressure, temperature, humidity, or other environmental conditions to known standards.
|
|
4. Conduct calibration tests to determine performance or reliability of mechanical, structural, or electromechanical equipment.
|
|
5. Develop new calibration methods or techniques based on measurement science, analyses, or calibration requirements.
|
|
6. Disassemble and reassemble equipment for inspection.
|
|
7. Draw plans for developing jigs, fixtures, instruments, or other devices.
|
|
8. Maintain or repair measurement devices or equipment used for calibration testing.
