What We Calibrate

Industrial Scale Calibration

On-site weighing scale calibration and preventative maintenance delivered by our skilled field engineers. Standards to ISO 9001 and ISO 17025 (UKAS) accredited procedures.

Trieuses pondérales dynamiques

Production-aware calibration for high-speed environments. We validate accuracy at line speed, not just static checks, confirming timing, configuration and performance.

Balances de laboratoire

Laboratory balance calibration for regulated environments, covering UKAS ISO 17025 (Accredited Laboratory No. 9617) and ISO 9001 traceable routes, plus IQ/OQ/PQ support where required.

Pesage de processus et capteurs de pesage

Traceable load cell calibration for vessels, silos & process weighing systems using signal injection or force calibration techniques. Further testing available with PLC/HMI output.

Coussins de pesage d'essieu

We calibrate portable weigh pads using dedicated 12.5-tonne force rigs and ISO 17025 certified reference load cells — now with full UKAS traceability and VCA-compliant documentation where required.

Ponts-bascules

On-site weighbridge calibration to ISO 9001:2015 standards, keeping inbound/outbound vehicle weighing accurate and compliant. Approval / stamping available up to 50t using a specialised weighbridge test unit vehicle.

Other Instruments

We calibrate far beyond weighing — temperature (PT100/PT1000, thermocouples, chambers), pressure (−0.95 to 100 bar g), humidity probes, pH & conductivity meters, salt analysers, plus magnet/gauss testing and metal detectors.
