The measurement of hardness is used extensively by many of the world's manufacturing industries. The conventional hardness tests are the most commonly used methods for acceptance testing and production quality-control of metals and metallic products. For these industries to be successful, it is important that measurements made by suppliers and customers agree within some practical limits. Measurement traceability is a key factor in assuring hardness measurement agreement. This paper discusses the traceability issues related to the measurement of conventional hardness, including calibration, verification and uncertainty.

Abstract
The measurement of hardness is used extensively by many of the world's manufacturing industries. The conventional hardness tests are the most commonly used methods for acceptance testing and production quality-control of metals and metallic products. For these industries to be successful, it is important that measurements made by suppliers and customers agree within some practical limits. Measurement traceability is a key factor in assuring hardness measurement agreement. This paper discusses the traceability issues related to the measurement of conventional hardness, including calibration, verification and uncertainty.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
