As an accreditation assessor, I can say that many common assessment deficiencies could have been prevented if the calibration certificate had been thoroughly reviewed.
This article is an adaptation of my popular presentation, “Beyond the Sticker & the Cert (Ensuring Better Measurements & Reducing Risk).” Product manufacturers, testing labs, and calibration labs often overlook the importance of thoroughly reviewing calibration certificates, leading to potential measurement inaccuracies and increased risks.
Beamex announced the relocation of its US operations, including its state-of-the-art calibration laboratory and warehouse, to a new, expanded facility in Atlanta, GA.
Cable tension must be maintained precisely across various industries, and cable tensiometers are crucial for this. However, calibration of these instruments often faces issues due to communication between calibration labs and end users, leading to doubts about equipment functionality.
Our intent is to bring awareness to the importance of close out calibrations and where not possible as in the case of catastrophic failure, having a system in place that provides confidence that non-conforming parts have not been released.
Equipment failure disrupts routine calibrations, making it hard to verify specifications. Consider the impact on products since the last calibration and document assumptions about equipment tolerance.
New calibration software trends simplify processes, enhance traceability, ensure compliance, and drive data-driven accuracy in response to increasing demands for precision.
The Automated Force Calibration System can be purchased as an upgrade or with any existing Morehouse Universal Calibrating Machines or Scale Calibration Press.
If drowning and in need of help, most people would yell for assistance. Similarly, choosing the wrong calibration equipment can have disastrous consequences.
If you're looking to learn more about management, auditing, engineering, Six Sigma, supply chains, or calibration, there's someone I'd like you to meet.
