Hello, First time posting here.
I have searched the forum and haven't quite found an answer to my question so I thought I would go ahead and post. Sorry if this has allready been answered somewhere.
We are just now implimenting AS9100 and are getting ready to calibrate all the measuring tools in the shop including employee tools. We use a lot of mics and calipers and such. We purchased a calibration set from Long Island Indicator to use just for calibrations exclusivly so we wouldn't be using any Jo Blocks that are used on the floor. This set pretty much only goes up to 1 inch though but every block in the set has it's own serial number. We want to add new blocks to this set to increase the tool sizes we can calibrate with it. A two inch block three inch block, whatever. We are having a rough time finding individual blocks with serial numbers on them however. At least without paying an arm and a leg for them. Our boss would like to just purchase a whole new 81 block set or something for just slightly more then the cost of the individual serial numbered blocks.
My question is, does each block used in calibration have to have it's own serial number? If it doesn't can we number it our selves and add it to the calibration kit we allready have to cut down on the recording of so many numbers?
Thanks
