Lloyd Instruments materials and force testers from AMETEK Test & Calibration Instruments now include a specially developed jig for easy determination of peel strength of the aluminum foil on contact lens blister packs.
High-speed data capture technique cuts calibration time 85 to 90%, minimizing downtime on key assets

The word “laser” implies “light speed” for the casual listener, but witnessing a bi-directional laser calibration run on just one linear axis of a CNC mill conjures up a completely different image of something less than light speed.
Air gages have been reliable tools for more than 70 years, providing accurate and repeatable measures of diameter, depth, parallelism, taper and flatness.
I hate paperwork. In fact, I think the only redeeming quality most of it has is the fact that it is combustible and therefore great for starting fires in my fireplace.
In my last column I beat up on the calibration of adjustable thread ring gages. Since I’m a nice guy, I thought it only fair that non-adjustable or solid thread ring gage calibration get similar treatment.
JG&A Metrology Center now utilizes NIST traceable calibration features on all CT systems to further validate system accuracy for repeatability and consistency.
