What is ISO 13225- Height gauges about?
ISO 13225 is an international standard that covers the aspects of the geometrical product specifications (GPS).
ISO 13225 specifies the most important design and metrological characteristics of height gauges (with analogue indication or digital indication) for linear-dimensional measurements perpendicular to a surface plate.
ISO 13225 stipulates the technicalities such as related terms and definitions, design characteristics, general design and nomenclature, main dimensions, types of indicating devices, protection for field use, measuring and scribing stylus, instrument base, design characteristics, proving of conformance with specifications, marking, etc., for the height gauges.
Who is ISO 13225- Height gauges for?
ISO 13225 on the height gauges is relevant to:
- Manufacturers of height gauges
- Designers of height gauges
- Metrologists
- Testing authorities
- Developers of geometrical product specifications
- Researchers of geometrical product specifications
Why should you use ISO 13225- Height gauges?
A height gauge is a measuring instrument in which a slider with a measuring stylus moves relative to a measuring scale on a beam and in which this motion is along a single vertical axis nominally perpendicular to a reference plane on the instrument base.
ISO/TR 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which ISO 13225 is a part. ISO 13225 is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a general GPS standard. ISO 13225 gives you elaborated information about the technical specifications such as design characteristics, main dimensions, instrument base, etc., which helps the users to design and manufacture highly efficient, excellent quality height gauges. ISO 13225 influences the chain-link 5 of the chain of standards on size and distance. ISO 13225 is intended to serve the purpose of promoting the relationship between the manufacturer and end-user, as well as the management of measuring instruments in the quality assurance system.
Overall, ISO 13225 is useful as it assists with the design and metrological characteristics of dimensional measuring equipment, which can be helpful for producing supreme class height gauges.
