Accurate & Reliable
The accuracy of measuring and weighing devices naturally degrades over time, due to normal wear and tare. This can also occur due to mechanical failure, contamination from hostile production environments and other factors. Having your equipment calibrated by a professional and approved provider like us, will ensure the ongoing accuracy of your device/s.
Good quality measurements can only be achieved if your weighing equipment is regularly calibrated. This will ensure your equipment will meet the requirements of your quality management registration and that you consistently achieve the level/standard of performance that your customers and suppliers demand. Don’t forget that the hidden costs and risks associated with uncalibrated equipment, far outweigh the costs of regular calibration.
Calibration Procedures
As part of service visit the weighing machine is tested in an “as found” state, this provides you with the ability to monitor the performance of the asset from the last time it was adjusted.
If the weighing machine is deemed to be outside of pre-determined tolerances then the next step is the calibration and adjustment of the weighing machine. These readings are then logged as the “definitive” results on the calibration certificate. It is important to properly calibrate your scales on a regular basis, the frequency can be recommended based on monitoring previous definitive results and as found results. Wide variations could mean increased visits are necessary to eliminate errors being left too long.
This calibration and adjustment of balances and scales can be carried out to ISO IEC 17025/SLAB standards. We have calibrated sets of calibration weights to perform adjustments on 7 place ultra-micro balances through to weighbridges.
