- Abstract:
- The purpose of this paper is to show the needs and to propose a new methodology for a better dissemination of torque quantity in Brazil. Starting traceability from the Force, Torque and Hardness Laboratory (LAFOR) in the National Institute of Metrology, Standardization and Industrial Quality (INMETRO), an improvement to the Primary Torque Standard was necessary. In the same way, the acquisition of new transfer and reference standards, together with the development and adoption of new methods for torque calibration systems characterization, are important for a better acting of Inmetro’s Accreditation and Laboratorial Proficiency Testing Division (DICLA). In the methodology for that dissemination and harmonization, this proceeding lists what are important points to be on focus.
