Abstract
Accurate dimensional characterization of automotive components is extremely critical, as assorted components are assembled to develop the final product with structural complexities. This article demonstrates the significance of equitable dimensional measurements in the automotive sector; a considerable economic and industrial force for the socio-economic growth of a country. It emphasizes the requirement of precise dimensional measurements for optimal quality assurance in automotive industries, leading toward extensive customer satisfaction, elevated productivity, and immense employment opportunities. This article elaborates on the momentousness of dimensional metrology in the automotive sector through substantial case studies and explicates the importance of intercomparisons in metrology. The present manuscript deliberates the evolution of industrial dimensional metrology for in-line/near-line measurements and fast automation in the automotive segment and delineates the role of CSIR-National Physical Laboratory India (CSIR-NPLI); The National Measurement Institute of India, in catering to the ever-augmenting dimensional metrology demands of the automotive sector.
期刊介绍:
MAPAN-Journal Metrology Society of India is a quarterly publication. It is exclusively devoted to Metrology (Scientific, Industrial or Legal). It has been fulfilling an important need of Metrologists and particularly of quality practitioners by publishing exclusive articles on scientific, industrial and legal metrology.
The journal publishes research communication or technical articles of current interest in measurement science; original work, tutorial or survey papers in any metrology related area; reviews and analytical studies in metrology; case studies on reliability, uncertainty in measurements; and reports and results of intercomparison and proficiency testing.
