Explanations to UPMC accuracy

MPE = Maximum Permissible Error

As defined in the DIN EN ISO 10360, every specification for accuracy will be noted with "Maximum Permissible
error (MPE)". MPE defines a maximum value that a measuring deviation is not allowed to exceed. Accuracy
results are represented as an index number. MPEE describes the length measuring error and MPEP describes the
probing error.
