Calibratsiooni
Calibratsiooni refers to the process of adjusting and verifying the accuracy of a measuring instrument or system to ensure its readings correspond to known standards. The term originates from the Latin *calibrare*, meaning "to provide with a scale," and is widely used in fields such as engineering, physics, and metrology. Proper calibration is essential for maintaining precision in measurements, whether in industrial manufacturing, scientific research, or everyday applications like medical devices.
The calibration process typically involves comparing the instrument’s output against a reference standard of known accuracy.
Calibration is distinct from maintenance, which focuses on repairing or replacing worn parts, though the two
While calibration ensures accuracy, it does not guarantee long-term stability. Regular recalibration intervals depend on the
