Calibration Equipment & Standards and Calibration Software
May 10, 2022
Getting the most accurate resistance measurement on a multimeter depends on how you connect your calibrator to your multimeter as well as what kind of multimeter you’re working with. Learn the four different connection methods and the tool settings to measure and test resistance on a digital handheld multimeter, a bench multimeter, and a systems multimeter. Whether you connect one set of test leads or two and how the setup is done, you can compensate for additional resistance on your leads and...

In November 2018 the global metrology community agreed on a revision to the International System of Units (SI) during the General Conference on Weights and Measures of the International Bureau for Weights and Measures (BIPM) in Versailles. With a unanimous vote, the 60 countries in attendance agreed to adjust the SI to be based entirely on unchanging properties of nature; a 150-year dream for the scientific community.
Starting on World Metrology Day 2019 (May 20), for the first time, all seven...

What is transmitter calibration?
As with all electronic equipment, transmitters can lose accuracy over time leading to incorrect readings that can throw off procedures down the line resulting in waste or poor quality. Calibrating equipment like pressure transmitters brings the measurement readings back in line with standards using a known value to align with.
In this article you’ll learn the benefits of conducting pressure transmitter calibration at the bench vs the field, get an overview of...

MET/SUPPORT Gold calibration procedures are moving to an all-new platform, called Cubyt. Cubyt currently hosts 410,000 device profiles, 320,000 OEM specifications, and 250,000 CAL-SHEETS, making it the world’s largest metrology database.
Cubyt continues to see 30,000 additional devices added each month. Eventually, this platform will be the one source of truth for all metrology and calibration data across the world.

With calibration management software
One of almost every laboratory’s performance metrics is tracking calibration throughput–how many assets can each individual calibrate throughout the day. The more assets properly calibrated during the workday, the more work a calibration lab can take on without needing to hire more individuals. By adding automation to your calibration laboratory with software, you’ll be able to see a notable increase in calibration throughput–up to 200%.
Adding automation...

As we celebrate World Metrology Day this year, the impact of quality measurements in healthcare is even more transparent. After more than a year of global pandemic actions, we can see how much our industry has been involved in the medical device manufacturing process as well as vaccine production and transportation.
Fluke Chief Corporate Metrologist Jeff Gust explains why measurements matter, and continue to matter, every step of our journey in the fight against COVID-19.

Nitinol is a metal alloy of nickel and titanium with unique properties, including superelasticity and shape memory. It can be folded up in order to be inserted into the body, then return to its original cast shape and size when in place.
Fluke salt baths help ensure consistent and repeatable processes for medical device manufacturing and Nitinol forming by providing stability and uniformity specifications that are up to 10x that of a typical heat-treating bath.
Precise heating and quenching...
