Measuring skills training
All forms of manufacturing and engineering require precision in either the production of components or in the maintenance, repair and installation activities that support them. Whilst there are some highly technical and complex measuring systems available in modern engineering there is still a need for employees to be able to carry out some basic measuring activities to be able to accurately produce and check suitable components.
This course, at our Technology Hub in Aston, Birmingham, is suitable for any person needing to measure manufactured components as part of their production process or inspection.
