    Peter Jäger

    Peter Jäger, Jahrgang 1959: Nach dem Gymnasium und einer Ausbildung zum Radio-Fernsehtechniker erfolgte der Einstieg in die professionelle Metrologie mit einer etwa 4 jährigen Ausbildung zum Kalibriertechniker. Der größte Teil dieser Ausbildung erfolgte bei der US-Airforce in Denver / Colorado. Nach Tätigkeiten im Kalibrierlabor als Kalibriertechniker, unter anderem für Oszilloskope, Multimeter und Messsender erfolgte eine Ausbildung zum staatl. geprüften Techniker. Ab 1991 war er Leiter eines mobilen Kalibrierlabors; später einige Jahre Leiter eines Kalibrierlabors für physikalische Messgrößen mit Erreichen einer Akkreditierung für die Messgröße Temperatur und Mitglied im entsprechenden Fachausschuss des DKD. Nach einer anschließenden etwa zweijähriger Tätigkeit als Projektbearbeiter für Kalibrierprojekte, zu denen auch die Erstellung von Kalibriervorschriften und -abläufen zählte, erfolgte eine Veränderung in die Nutzungsleitung für Mess- und Prüfgeräte einer großen Behörde. Von dort aus absolvierte er erfolgreich die Ausbildung zum DGQ-Qualitätsmanager und war dann schwerpunktmäßig mit der Entwicklung, Aufbau und dem Betrieb eines effektiven und normkonformen Qualitätsmanagementsystems betraut. Während dieser Zeit hielt er regelmäßig Fachvorträge zum Themengebiet Kalibrierung / Metrologie / Messmittelmanagement auf Fachkonferenzen wie der Measurement Science Conference MSC oder National Conference Of Standard Laboratories (international) NCSLi in den USA und veröffentlichte Fachbeiträge z.B. im weltweit erscheinenden Magazin "Metrologist". Später folgten Projektarbeiten "Optimierung Kalibrierung" und "Messmittelmanagement in SAP". Derzeit ist er bei einem führenden Weltunternehmen für Messtechnik als Leiter eines akkreditierten Kalibrierlabors und Schulungsleiter für Messtechnikseminare tätig.

      Bibliography

      Preamble

      This book is intended to provide concentrated information on calibration. It is intended to guide the most important standards and the reference points without the reader having to procure, read and fully understand these standards.

      The idea for this book came from countless inquiries - by telephone, in person or by email over many years from people who were confronted with the topic and were looking for support.

      Recurring questions about the topic of measuring equipment management and calibration such as why do you have to ..., where does it stand ..., can I also ... should be answered in a compact manner in this book. It was considered important to work closely on the normative references and to give the necessary references there.

      This book is partly identical to the book Measuring equipment management and calibration by the same author, BoD, ISBN 9783750434189, but the parts Structure of measuring equipment management and Tips and tricks are omitted.

      Measurement technology in everyday life

      Ensuring product quality is of increasing importance for every company, particularly with regard to the need to maintain or consolidate its economic position in the market.

      High quality requirements for a product nowadays mean that an adequate quality management system must be in place (keyword product liability).

      These findings are not new - the modern technology and the possibilities in mechanical production as well as the possibilities of electronic measurement data acquisition and utilization have replaced previous manufacturing processes. There is no longer a fit or a thumbs value.

      The pressure to act economically and modern manufacturing technology lead to process-based processes.

      In terms of the core factors, business processes and technical or manufacturing processes hardly differ. In order to reduce blurring, it should be noted that the further considerations and explanations in relation to services only relate to technical processes..

      Metrology – basic categorization

      From a holistic perspective, measurement technology is referred to as metrology. Metrology is the study of dimensions and systems of measurement. In the 3rd edition of the VIM in 2007, metrology is defined as science of measurement and its application.

      To meet the expectations and requirements described above, the large area of metrology can be divided into three basic categories:

      Legal metrology

      scientific metrology

      industrial metrology

      Legal metrology

      The basic tasks and goals of legal metrology are enshrined in the calibration law, which also contains the European requirements applicable in Germany. The purpose of this law is to protect consumers in the acquisition of measurable goods and services and, in the interest of fair trade, to create the conditions for correct measurement in business transactions, to ensure measurement security in health protection, occupational safety and environmental protection and in similar areas of public interest and to increase confidence in official measurements.

      In the Organization Internationale de Métrologie Légale (OIML), representatives from almost 100 countries are working on uniform construction and testing regulations for all measuring devices. In the certification system of the OIML, the certificates issued by the member states certify that a certain type of measuring device complies with the recommendations of the OIML. This means that a type tested and approved in one country can be approved in another without repeating the test.

      In Germany there is a national group, the Working Group on Measurement and Verification (AGME).

      AGME is the coordinating body for the calibration supervisory authorities. It includes the heads of the calibration supervisory authorities of the federal states and, as a guest, a representative of the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB). The chair changes every two years.

      An office has been set up to create a contact person that does not change every two years for business associations and partners in the other member States.

      The working group implements the decisions taken in the national committees for enforcement by the verification offices and the state-recognized test centers. The technical, organizational and legal questions relevant for a uniform implementation in practice are coordinated. Details can be found in the AGME rules of procedure.

      Scientific metrology

      Scientific metrology is not a specialty dedicated to universities or research institutions only.

      It is generally known that the national metrology institutes such as the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt for Germany or NIST in the US, are the guardians for the national
