| INDUSTRIAL MEASUREMENTS
(objectives)
The overall aim of the course of Industrial Measurements is to provide students with advanced knowledge and skills to orientate themselves among design, use and management of measurement systems in industrial processes depending on the technical requirements. In particular the selection criteria of the measurement system components are provided, based on an integrated approach taking into account not only the metrological and functional characteristics of the measuring devices, but also the evaluation of specifications typical of industrial applications and effective measurements. To this aim the analysis of available technologies and the good management practices for measurement instrumentation are considered. Moreover, part of the course is based on the study of specific standards, technical data-sheet and manuals as well as experimental laboratory activities.
