Dear colleagues,
As a chair of the National Organizing Committee (NOC), I am pleased to invite you to the Asia Pacific Measurement Forum on Mechanical Quantities (APMF 2019) being held in Niigata, Japan, on 17th to 21st of November, 2019.
As you may be aware, the APMF was first held in 1992 and initially a joint symposium between China and Japan to exchange technical information and expertise in the area of mass and force measurements.
Over the last quarter century, however, it has developed into a most active forum in the Asia Pacific region. This forum is sponsored by the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE), co-sponsored by the International Measurement Confederation (IMEKO) and organized by the National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ) in the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST).
The APMF 2019 is the 14th forum, where more than 100 experts are expected to gather and share state-of-the-art information and discuss current issues relating to the measurement of mass, force, torque, density, pressure, vacuum, hardness, and gravimetry.
Additionally, Niigata, as the host city, is looking forward to providing opportunities to experience the rich nature, diverse food culture and traditional and industry of Japan.
Certainly, the APMF 2019 in Niigata will be an extremely beneficial and positive event for all participants academically, physically, and mentally.
I look forward to seeing you all in Niigata.

Measurement technology on mass, force, torque constitutes an integral part of intellectual infrastructure for a diverse range of human activities such as quality and safety assurance of industrial products, fair trade, energy saving and environmental protection. The Asia Pacific Symposium on Measurement of Mass, Force and Torque (APMF), since its initiation in 1992, has been offering participants the opportunity of exchanging the latest information on R&D in these fields and also extending friendships. It has been growing steadily as a not-to-miss event for metrologists, researchers and engineers especially those actively working in the Asia-Pacific region....
