Measuring problems in Engineering need no introduction. From recent development in computer field, it is very well understood that lack of awareness is one of the contributing factors for huge errors. In order to increase the awareness about the effects of measurement among professionals involved in industries construction, it is necessary to make them understand the concepts of measurement in engineering. To address this issue, some software companies (DCCC, The College of Davidson and Davie Counties, The North Carolina, Advance Manufacturing Alliance.) have developed a software tool named "Virtual Micrometer training Tool" "Virtual Calipers Training Tool" for academic Laboratory. Using this tool, a person with some knowledge of measurement in engineering can be able to learn by himself the fundamentals of measurement. For convenience in explaining the concepts, we divided this tool into two modules. Each module contains few experiments with good G.U.I. In these experiments, user can find the explanation with virtual instruments. At the end of module user can understand the measurement technique of the machine parts. This software tool aims to help students, mechanical engineers in understanding the principles of measurement.
