We are working toward 17025 accreditation.
This is strictly for in house micrometers we calibrate for our own use (where we occasionally use a micrometer to measure a customer part and then provide a 17025 calibration report on the size of the part). All the micrometers have carbide anvils, and are used very lightly.
Our current procedure calls for checking with optical flats (set of 4) if any wear is apparent on the anvils.
Is anvil checking something that must be done each time, or is our current procedure ok?
