Gauges. This is a word that is incorrectly used by many people to describe the jewelry worn in stretched earlobe piercings. The Gauge system is actually a system of measurement, initially created to measure the thickness of wire and other cylindrical objects.
What is calibration and what is its importance? Calibration is defined as an association between measurements â one of a scale or accuracy made or set with one piece of equipment and another measurement made in as similar a way as possible with a second piece of equipment.
Calibration technically means to determine the difference between the balance/scale readout and the actual weight on the weighing platform to determine accuracy. Adjustment means to bring a balance/scale into the state of accuracy required for its use. Therefore, 'calibration, actually means adjustment.. Some instruments contain internal calibration weights that are quite accurate, and can be used by the operator routinely, but we recommend external calibration.
