New OIML Certification System and Supporting Seminar

5/22/2017

 
At its meeting in October 2016, the International Committee of Legal Metrology (CIML) decided that the existing OIML Certification Systems will be replaced by a new single Certification System (OIML-CS) on 1 January 2018. The consequence is that after 1 January 2018 both OIML MAA Certificates and Basic Certificates will no longer be issued – instead, OIML-CS Certificates will be issued.

This change will affect all stakeholders: manufacturers, Issuing Participants under the MAA, Issuing Authorities under the Basic System, Utilizers and users of OIML MAA and Basic Certificates. Therefore a one-day seminar on the new OIML-CS is planned on 15 June 2017. 

​Information on the seminar, including how to register, can be found here.

20 May - World Metrology Day 2017 - 'Measurements for transport'

5/17/2017

 
The 20th of May will mark this years World Metrology Day. The theme this year is 'Measurements for transport'. This theme was chosen because transport plays such a key role in the modern world. We not only move ourselves, but also the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the goods we use and rely on, not forgetting the raw materials they are made from. Doing so safely, efficiently and with minimal environmental impact requires an astonishing range of measurements.

​World Metrology Day is an annual celebration of the signature of the Metre Convention on 20 May 1875 by representatives of seventeen nations. The Convention set the framework for global collaboration in the science of measurement and in its industrial, commercial and societal applications. The original aim of the Metre Convention - the world-wide uniformity of measurement - remains as important today as it was in 1875.

You can learn more about World Metrology Day on the joint BIPM & OIML website.
