ISO 10012

Okay kiddo, imagine your toy box is full of different toys but you want to make sure every toy is the exact size and shape it is supposed to be. This is what iso 10012 is all about, but with things that are not toys.

Iso 10012 is a set of rules that tells grown-ups how to measure different things in a correct and uniform way. It helps people make sure that every measurement they take is accurate and consistent.

For example, if a company makes cars, there are many different kinds of parts that go into making each car. Iso 10012 helps the company make sure every part is the exact size and shape it's supposed to be. This way, when all the parts come together, they fit perfectly and the car runs smoothly.

When people use iso 10012, they use special tools called measuring equipment to take the measurements. Just like how you use a ruler to measure the size of your toys or a timer to see how long it takes you to run around the room.

And that's it! Iso 10012 helps grown-ups measure things precisely and accurately, just like you measure your toys to make sure they're all perfect.
