  • Micrometer Calibration -All measuring taps used in Auto Knitwear Ltd. Sewing Line, Measurement Checking, Final Inspection and Stores Dept. must be properly calibrated at an interval of 90 days  Read about Pressure Gauges Calibration Apparatus ..
  • Calibration of Tapes shall be performed by using the calibration standard. A Measuring Scale of 1 meter length with a valid accuracy shall be obtained and certified by Bangladesh Standard and Testing Institute (BSTI) centimeter sale measurement.
  • Manager Maintenance shall be the custodian for the Measurement calibration standard and it will be safeguarded from any unauthorized use.
  • The Measuring tapes shall be calibrated against the certified Standard in Centimeters scale. The record of such calibration shall be maintained in Calibration record form.
  • Maximum acceptable tolerance for the measuring tape shall be identified in the calibration certificate. Any tape showing readings greater than the acceptable limit will be withdrawn from the floor and replaced with a calibrated one.
  • Measuring tapes to be calibrated shall be measured to 1 meter (0-100cm) length from the starting edge against eh calibration standard tape and record shall be taken.
  • The reading of the tape under calibration (against 1 meter of the calibration standard tape) shall be taken and written down.
  • The deviation shall be calculated and converted into centimeters meter standard in the following formula : aaaa
