The transfer of data for the metrological traceability of measurement results is currently taking place in the form of paper-based calibration certificates, mostly. Especially accredited metrology services providers are often bound to paper certificates by regulatory constrictions and sometimes lack of IT-infrastructure. This analog form of metrology data transfer, however, implies hands-on work, in particular for the certificate receiver, as its key values need to be translated into the device- and quality management (QM) system, manually. With thousands of certificates transferred from accredited calibration labs until the industrial regime, this binds a significant amount of human resources and is a well-known source of errors, thus constricting cost-effective and secure workflows.
This contribution highlights the status of the advancing digital transformation in metrology, on the example of force calibration. Although this appealing initiative is to a large extend driven by German stakeholders, it currently evolves to extend across all Europe and far beyond.
