Peterlee-based
Calibrationhouse, a leader in UKAS-accredited calibration services, has ‘pressed the go button’ on a sizable investment in new capabilities to streamline and enhance equipment calibration for the manufacturing industry. A raft of new services will enable the company to offer a ‘one-stop-shop’ for calibration needs as it is possible to perform the majority of them at customers’ own premises.
Last year, the company rolled out new calibration capabilities including bore gauges, high-pressure up to 700 bar, verniers, micrometers, height gauges, thermal imaging cameras, anemometers and torque wrenches to 1000Nm. The company also introduced inclinometer, protractor and expanded temperature calibration services.
Now in 2024, the company will offer calibration of force gauges, current transformers, high-pressure gauges, liquid flow, mass, gauge blocks and humidity devices to complete a wide portfolio of capabilities covering the electrical, temperature, pressure, flow, dimensional and humidity calibration disciplines.
Calibrationhouse’s engineers can deliver its extensive range of calibration services directly at a customer’s premises, meaning crucial test equipment is unavailable for minutes rather than days. Alternatively, manufacturers can still opt to send their equipment to Calibrationhouse's base in Peterlee for back-to-base calibration completed within five working days from receipt.
Calibrationhouse manager Andrew Simpson said: “We are providing a comprehensive calibration solution of the highest quality that enables us to calibrate almost all of our customers test equipment, as recognised by our continuous accreditation as an approved vendor for the prestigious UK Defence Sector (JOSCAR).
“Traditionally, manufacturers had to rely on multiple calibration companies who could each only handle a portion of their calibration needs. Our expanded capabilities mean manufacturers can now turn to Calibrationhouse as a one-stop-shop. From bore gauges to temperature probes, verniers to pressure gauges, our extensive range of capabilities mean that we can calibrate almost the vast majority of a typical manufacturing companies test equipment, either at a customer’s premises or back in our laboratory.”
The comprehensive service available from Calibrationhouse makes the provider an ideal partner for manufacturers, delivering greater efficiency, reliability and reduced downtime. With over 1,500 customers already benefitting from its services, Calibrationhouse is setting new standards for calibration in the manufacturing industry.
