This article is devoted to contemporary topics of ensuring the uniformity of Leeb hardness measurements. The analysis of the physical principles of the Leeb hardness test is carried out, and the influence of the measuring transducer parameters on the measurement results is investigated. A four-level structure of the calibration hierarchy for the Leeb hardness scales is proposed, which ensures metrological traceability of hardness scales from the calibration reference machines (CRMs) to measuring instruments. A list of requirements for the 2nd grade CRM and the 2nd grade Leeb reference test blocks are formulated in accordance with the proposed calibration hierarchy draft and their values are calculated. A prototype was developed and a model of the 2nd grade Leeb hardness CRM and a set of Leeb reference test blocks were manufactured, as well as the compliance of their metrological characteristics with the requirements of the proposed calibration hierarchy draft and international standards was confirmed. The results of this work allow us to ensure the uniformity and reliability of the Leeb hardness measurements.

A serious barrier to the sale of products on the market is the trust in organizations that perform measurements during product testing, as well as calibration (verification) of the used measuring instruments. Confidence and recognition of measurement results at the international level is ensured through an accreditation mechanism. To ensure effective functioning at the international level, accreditation organizations enter into a multilateral agreement that provides for the use of common standards in the conduct of accreditation. One of the important requirements of these standards is the implementation and demonstration of metrological traceability, which is a tool for ensuring the uniformity of measurements.

Abstract In the past decade, with the signing of the joint declaration by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM), the International Organisation of Legal Metrology, the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation, and the International Organization for Standardization, and the issuing of new international standards such as ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 13528, metrological traceability has become more and more important for the mutual recognition of measurement results. It is found that the important factors for ensuring the accuracy of results are not only relevant to calibrants but also to the analysis procedure. This paper focuses on the analysis of key factors that affect measurement results, such as analytical methods, reference materials (RMs), and proficiency testing of mycotoxins. The Capacity Building and Knowledge Transfer Programme for mycotoxins, led by the BIPM, which aims to establish a global measurement system traced to the Système International d’Unités (SI), is well illustrated. Furthermore, this paper suggests to stakeholders that great effort is needed to promote the effective use of certified RM resources that are traced to the SI and globally recognized by the International Committee for Weights and Measures to finally realize “one measurement, global recognition.”

A calibration is an activity to determine the conventional validity of the appointment value of measuring instruments and measuring materials by comparing them to standard measurements that are traceable to national and international standards for measurement units and or international and certified reference materials. The calibration is generally a process of adjusting the output or indication of a measurement device to match the magnitude of the standard used in certain accuracy. The purpose of this paper is to find out the vickers hardness test calibration whether the machine running normally or there is a problem with the device. A case study was conducted in PT. Tenaris SPIJ, Cilegon, Indonesia. A vickers hardness testing in the case study has its own reference standard, namely ISO 6507-2: 2018 Metal material - Hardness Test Verification and Calibration of the test machine. The vickers hardness test equipment is a machine to conduct tests using a diamond pyramid with a plane angle of 136°, by means of an emphasis by an indentor that results in a trace or indentation on the surface of the test object. The vickers hardness testing is abbreviated as HV or HVN and also known as Diamond Pyramid Hardness Test (DPH). Result of calibration in the case study was found the repeatability value on vickers hardness testing machine of 32 HV 10 and the error value of ±3%.

Measurement Results

AbstractThe concept of metrological traceability of measurement results to property values assigned to measurement standards of higher metrological order or to the International System of Units (SI) through sequential calibrations, using reference materials and reference measurement procedures, plays a key role in ensuring that end user measurement procedures perform at an acceptable level in the clinical context. The aim is that measurement results produced over time or by different end users or with different end user measurement procedures for the same measurand will be equivalent within their corresponding uncertainties. These goals can only be reached under certain conditions and if requirements laid down in international standards on calibration concepts, reference measurement procedures and reference materials are fulfilled. Calibration hierarchies have to be implemented correctly and parameters contributing to measurement uncertainty and systematic bias need to be controlled and eliminated, respectively, by technically improving methods and reference materials and intermediate calibrators used for effectively achieving equivalence of measurement results and for meeting analytical performance requirements for in vitro diagnostic devices.

The article raises the problem of ensuring metrological traceability of the measurement results of indicators of quality and nutritional value for food products and food raw materials: water (moisture), nitrogen (protein, crude protein), fat, ash and carbohydrates. The problem under consideration can be solved by applying reference materials of food composition, traceable to state primary measurement standards GET 173-2017 and GET 176-2019 and primary reference measurement procedures (PRMP), for attestation of measurement procedures and accuracy checking of measurement results. The article discusses the results of the PRMP development of mass fraction of fat, ash and carbohydrates in food products and food raw materials, as well as mass fraction of crude fat (oil content) in oil crops seeds and products based on them. The paper also presents metrological characteristics of reference materials of composition of dry dairy products, grain-milk dry porridges for nutrition of babies, grain dry porridges for nutrition of babies, egg powder, freeze-dried meat products, animal feed. The results of the work allow for building a chain of metrological traceability from GET 173-2017, GET 176-2019 and PRMP to routine measurement procedures, thereby ensuring the uniformity of measurements of nutritional value of food products.

The approach to creating standard means for reproducing units of volumetric activity of radon and thoron and flux density of radon from the soil surface is described based on the physical principles of reproducing these units of quantities and using as technical means for reproducing bubblers with a radioactive solution of radium salt, reference capacities of known volume, emanation chambers for generation of a toron, a gamma spectrometer with a semiconductor detector from highly pure germanium and radon radiometers. Reproduction consists in the physical realization of units in accordance with their definition as applied to the formation of radon and thoron in the radioactive rows of radium and thorium. The proposed approach will allow to determine the structural, structural and other technical solutions of standard measuring instruments, as well as specific techniques and methods of working with them. The creation of standard tools and technologies for reproducing units of volumetric activity of radon and thoron and the density of radon flux from the soil surface will ensure the unity and reliability of measurements in the field of ionizing radiation, traceability of units and bringing the characteristics of national standards in line with world achievements.
