A successful standard calibration is a prerequisite to minimise linearity errors, see Chap. 5.4.1. A linearity calibration on the corresponding measuring object must be performed without fail. A change of the measuring object size has significant effects on the mea- surement results. eddyNCDT 3300/3301 Page 18...
