A necessary evil? Or just a
sticker to satisfy the auditor? In fact, calibration can be as critical to your
process as using good raw materials, having well-trained employees, and an
efficient design.
It’s also a requirement of ISO9001:2000 (Section 7.6 of the Standard
specifically covers the requirements for measuring and monitoring equipment).
An effective calibration service can contribute to profitability by reducing
waste, costs and time.
Poorly calibrated instruments may give incorrect information about tested
products, and could lead to the belief that either bad products are passing
tests (potentially increasing warranty costs) or that good products are failing
(which will incur unnecessary rework and 'no fault-found' costs).
It’s a fact of life that electronic measuring equipment can drift out of
calibration or partially fail without it being obvious to the user. Regular
calibration can increase confidence in the accuracy of the equipment and
identify partial failures so they can be rectified before they effect your
product quality.
We calibrate a wide range of equipment and can also offer cal contracts to
reduce your annual cal costs
