Abstract

In the new digital environment of Industry 4.0 for Germany, Innovation 25 program for Japan, Advanced Manufacturing for USA, Intelligent Manufacturing or Made in China 2025 for China, Factories of the Future for France, etc., the measurement uncertainty needs a specific management in order to control the quality of the manufactured part. In this future digital world, where the software will have a central position in the verification of a specification, it is necessary to provide to the metrologist data with uncertainty in real time. The aim of this chapter is to present the uncertainty calculation methodologies. The common analytical and numerical methods to estimate uncertainty will be presented.
