# EML Calibration Explains: The Importance of Ring Gage Calibration
As an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration laboratory, safeguarding high standards of accuracy and traceability. Here, we explain what ring gage calibration is, why it matters, and how our services ensure uncompromised accuracy in testing and measurement.
What is Ring Gage Calibration?
The calibration of ring gages means checking and adjusting their accuracy through certified standards and precision instruments. Calibration consists of measuring the ring gage with reference to master ring gages or certified gage blocks. The process ensures that the ring gage’s dimensions match specifications by accounting for allowable tolerances, accumulated wear, or temperature fluctuations.
Technicians employ digital equipment and calibrated instruments to check each ring gage’s measurements. Calibration labs like EML Calibration employ stepped calibration processes that often include the use of soak plates for thermal stabilization during measuring, ensuring temperature uniformity and minimizing the uncertainty of measurement.
Steps in Ring Gage Calibration Procedure
At EML Calibration, the ring gauge calibration process is structured to meet all accuracy and compliance demands. The process typically includes the following steps:
1. **Preparing Equipment:** Ring gages and all master standards—like master ring gages and gage blocks—are thoroughly cleaned and visually checked for damage.
2. **Soak Plate Stabilization:** The ring gage and all standards are set on a soak plate to stabilize at lab temperature (usually 20°C), mitigating error due to thermal expansion.3. **Measuring Using Digital Instruments:** Digital measuring equipment, certified as traceable, is employed to assess the ring gage's dimensions to utmost precision.
4. **Assessment Against Master References:** We repeat measurements and compare them to master gages or gage blocks to confirm compliance with class limits and specified tolerances.5. **Issuing Certification and Validation:** We prepare a calibration certificate featuring complete traceability, serving as an audit trail and proof of compliance for quality processes.
6. **Adjustment/Replacement (as needed):** Ring gages that do not meet tolerance may be repaired, adjusted, or replaced, ensuring continuing measuring accuracy.Benefits of EML Calibration for Testing and Measuring
