DAkkS accredited calibration laboratory

We live for quality

The globalised economy is increasingly demanding interchangeable manufactured parts. However, this is only guaranteed if producers, traders and users apply the same measure. The resetting of measuring and testing devices to national norms through calibration in certified and accredited testing and calibration laboratories, such as in our DAkkS laboratory, guarantees this. We are partners with the Physical Technical Federal Institution (PTB), which enables us to provide defined testing and calibration conditions. This includes air-conditioned measuring rooms as well as modern calibration facilities, as well as the fact that our norms are directly linked to the norms of the PTB.

Quality is our nature

As a manufacturer of precision measuring technology, quality and reliability are indispensable to us. We are certified in accordance with ISO 9001 and accredited according to DIN EN ISO 17025. All measuring systems and measuring devices that we produce are tested and calibrated in our calibration laboratory before they are delivered to our clients.

Calibration service and administration of testing devices

We calibrate testing devices and measuring systems from our own production as well as from other manufacturers. We also calibrate highly precise and sensitive measuring systems, such as measuring gauges and high definition display testing devices, length measuring machines, end gauge testing stations and tapeline testing instruments on location for you, to guarantee the highest precision in your environmental conditions and low downtimes. On request, we also take over the administration of your testing devices in our database and get the testing devices from you for recalibration in good time. This means that you don't have to worry about keeping up with the recalibration deadlines.

We can conduct the subsequent tests/calibrations in our DAkkS laboratory.

Calibrating = determining and documenting the deviation of a measuring instrument's display (or the given value of a standard measure) of the conventional correct value of the measuring size.

Recalibrating = process by which the display of a measuring device (or a standard measure) can be compared with a national standard for the measuring size in question, in a single or in several stages.
