What is the Vernier Caliper & Micrometer Calibration?

Vernier Calipers and Micrometers are the most widely used hand-held measuring instruments in testing laboratories — used for specimen dimension measurement, mould size verification, aggregate particle size and gauge length checking.

At Global Lab, Vernier caliper and micrometer calibration uses NPL-traceable gauge blocks (Grade 1 per IS 2984). Calibration points cover the full measuring range — jaw flatness, parallelism, zero error and scale accuracy verified. Results issued with measurement uncertainty per GUM.

Non-Destructive

Minimal surface preparation. Structure integrity is preserved throughout testing.

Fast Turnaround

On-site results within hours. Digital reports dispatched within 24 hours.

NABL Certified

All test and calibration results are backed by traceable measurements and standardized procedures.

Pan-India Coverage

Site engineers deployed across 7 lab locations and all major project sites.

Digital Reporting

Access reports anytime via Autovity QLMS client dashboard — zero paperwork.

High Accuracy

Results correlated to cube compressive strength with ±2% precision range.

How the Vernier Caliper & Micrometer Calibration is Conducted

  • 1

    Surface Preparation

    A shallow groove (approx. 25mm deep) is cut into the concrete surface using a diamond-tipped cutting tool. The surface is cleaned of dust and debris.
  • 2

    Insert Disc Placement

    A specially designed steel insert disc is placed into the groove. A thin rod connects the disc to the pullout apparatus above the surface.
  • 3

    Hydraulic Pullout Force Application

    A hydraulic jack applies a steady, controlled pullout force to the insert disc via the reaction ring resting on the concrete surface.
  • 4

    Failure Load Recording

    The maximum force at which the concrete cone is extracted is recorded. A digital load indicator provides real-time readings with data logging.
  • 5

    Strength Calculation & Reporting

    The pullout force is correlated to cube compressive strength using established calibration curves. NABL-accredited reports are issued via Autovity QLMS.
