We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Calibration Service",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Laser interferometer upgrades calibration service from
Renishaw, which we summarised at the time by saying "A calibration service company has recently upgraded its laser calibration system with a laser interferometer, which minimises transportation and set-up times".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Plastics melt indexer is more accurate for QC from
Zwick Roell: "A melt flow indexer with an advanced heating and temperature control system achieves much better temperature accuracy and stability than existing products in plastics extrusion quality control".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Renishaw
concerning its XL-80 laser unit and XC-80 compensator
- take a look at Compact laser interferometer has portability
which says: "A compact laser interferometer measurement system offers more performance, ease of use and reduced the typical 'warm-up' time for the laser to around 5 min".
Take a look also at the news release from Hexagon Metrology, CMM checks telescope mirrors to under 1 micron,
as well as Wireless temperature and humidity data logger from Fluke (UK),
and Customised blade-tip clearance measurement system from Tyco Thermal Controls.
