EDUB-110: Small Tool, Introduction, Calibration and Repair BUNDLE

The Mitutoyo Institute of Metrology is now offering BUNDLE packaging on select in-person seminars! Customize your training by choosing to attend a training session independently, or group together multiple training sessions for the discounted BUNDLE pricing!

EDUB-110: Small tool, introduction, calibration and repair BUNDLE, pairs together EDU-101, EDU-113, and EDU-301.

EDU-101: Introduction to Dimensional Metrology Hand Tools I- Fundamental Tools (1-day, in-person)

EDU-101 is a one-day class for entry-level team members who need to learn the fundamentals of the steel rule, caliper, micrometer, pin gage, and gage block. Experienced users should not expect to benefit from attending unless they have a strong willingness to update foundational measurement tool habits. Through hands-on instruction, this class focuses on the tool fundamentals and only briefly introduces part-to-print inspection. Future attendees of Seminar courses such as Seminar 114 may find this class helpful if they have not been in a calibration or quality role long or have only used certain types of equipment; for example, you’ve worked with digital micrometers, but not mechanical versions.

EDU-113: Dimensional Gage Calibration (2–day, in-person):

The first day of this course covers key principles that apply to all calibration situations, such as selection of calibration methods, use of appropriate reference standards, reporting of results, and traceability. Students will perform actual calibrations, learn, and practice techniques to improve accuracy of results, and understand how the general principles learned in class can be extended to the development of other calibration methods. Day two of the course moves into a series of demonstrations and hands-on practice of various calibrations, and by the end of day two, the students will have covered all the most common dimensional calibrations, including micrometers, specialty micrometers, micrometer standards, calipers, dial indicators, test indicators, digital indicators, and height gages. Students can be expected to leave class ready to perform many of the common dimensional calibrations, with an understanding of more advanced calibrations, and with the necessary skills to develop additional procedures to meet their needs.

EDU-301: Small Tool Repair Course (1-day, in-person):

Mitutoyo America is offering a one-day small tool gage maintenance and repair training.  Hosted at the Mitutoyo America Headquarters in Aurora, Illinois, the course will be taught be Mitutoyo’s very own repair specialists.  This hands-on and interactive session is designed to support technicians who are responsible for the regular maintenance, repair, and calibration of common precision measuring gages.  Mitutoyo will help participants recognize what tools and resources should be in a typical repair toolkit.  The class size will be intentionally small to ensure personalization and customed instruction to meet the needs of individual participants. 

The class will focus on the care and repair of Mitutoyo small tools including calipers (digital and dial), micrometers (digital and mechanical), and indicators (digital, dial, and lever-style). This course does not cover laser or MDH high accuracy micrometers, LH-600 or QM height gages, or non-Mitutoyo tools.

Prerequisites:
With the small size class, it is important that all students have the necessary background and training to ensure they receive the full benefit of the hands-on experience. Attendees should have general knowledge of calibration systems and experience operating various types of dimensional measuring instruments. 

Certificate: 
Participants will earn an Attendance Certificate from Mitutoyo America Corporation.

Additional Credentials:
While on-site, individuals attending Seminar #113 can demonstrate additional mastery of the concepts and skills by successfully passing the Calibration of Micrometers & Calipers Level 1 and 2 Credential Exams.  The Level 1 Exam is theory-based multiple choice test, while the Level 2 Exam is a performance-based skills assessment. (Separately, the credential exams are valued at $400 but included in the cost of this course.)
