Calibration services
CoMech provide onsite services for UTEST equipment; our calibration engineers are fully trained and available across the country.
Material testing equipment requires regular calibration to ensure accurate, reliable, and repeatable results. Calibration involves comparing the equipment’s performance against recognised UKAS standards and adjusting it to align with specified tolerances.
Universal testing machines often require force and displacement calibration, while hardness testers may need periodic checks of indentation depth or force application. Environmental chambers and ovens used for material conditioning also require temperature and humidity calibration. Proper calibration not only maintains compliance with international standards like ISO but also minimises measurement errors, ensuring the validity of test results critical for quality assurance and safety.
