    The 2P0X1 AFSC is broken down by skill levels. The five skill levels are 1,3,5,7,and 9. This skill level is determined by qualifications, rank and experience. In addition, this AFSC feeds into Chief Enlisted Manager code of 2P000. The following are typical roles for the various skill levels. More information can be found in the PMEL CFETP .

  5. Standard (metrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_(metrology)

    In metrology (the science of measurement), a standard (or etalon) is an object, system, or experiment that bears a defined relationship to a unit of measurement of a physical quantity. [1] Standards are the fundamental reference for a system of weights and measures, against which all other measuring devices are compared.

  6. Engineering tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance

    Summary of basic size, fundamental deviation and IT grades compared to minimum and maximum sizes of the shaft and hole. Dimensional tolerance is related to, but different from fit in mechanical engineering, which is a designed-in clearance or interference between two parts.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_system_analysis

    [2] These tools and techniques are also described in the books by Donald Wheeler [3] and Kim Niles. [4] Advanced procedures for designing MSA studies can be found in Burdick et al. [5] Equipment: measuring instrument, calibration, fixturing. People: operators, training, education, skill, care. Process: test method, specification.

  8. Design for inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_for_Inspection

    Similar to design for manufacture (DFM) and design for assembly (DFA) (which seek to avoid designs which are difficult to make), the concept of DFI considers measurement capabilities at an early stage in the product development life cycle and uses knowledge of the fundamental principles of metrology to achieve cost reduction. If the inspection ...

  9. Outline of the metric system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_the_metric_system

    "The metric system is for all people for all time." (Condorcet 1791) Four objects used in making measurements in everyday situations that have metric calibrations are shown: a tape measure calibrated in centimetres, a thermometer calibrated in degrees Celsius, a kilogram mass, and an electrical multimeter which measures volts, amps and ohms.
