The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) conducts CMM calibrations, ensuring that our clients’ coordinate measuring machines adhere to manufacturer’s specifications and industry standards.
What is a Coordinate Measuring Machine?
A coordinate measuring machine, or CMM, is an instrument that measures the geometry of physical objects. CMMs are widely revered for their versatility and accuracy, making them a popular choice for those measuring the dimensions of various objects, including plastics, electronics, and mechanical components. Coordinate measuring machines help businesses do the following:
- Improve production time
- Reduce production costs
- Minimize the likelihood of operator error
- Maintain quality control
Our CMM Calibration Services
Our calibration services help our clients verify the accuracy of their CMMs. During calibration, our experts compare our clients’ CMMs to a known standard, ensuring that the instrument is within an acceptable range of accuracy. If our clients’ equipment is inaccurate, we make the necessary adjustments to improve the CMM’s accuracy and report the issues that may have led to the device’s inconsistency. Upon completion of the calibration, we issue a certificate of calibration, guaranteeing that the device has been calibrated to the manufacturer’s specifications.
The Importance of CMM Calibrations
While the frequency of your CMM calibration needs may vary based on your individual devices and quality standards, experts recommend that CMM calibrations should occur every 2,000 hours. Our third-party calibration services help our clients minimize downtime and expenses by allowing them to focus their efforts elsewhere while we ensure their CMMs are in working order. Our CMM calibration services assist our clients as they do the following:
- Validate or improve their equipment’s accuracy
- Comply with regulations and adhere to accreditation standards
- Extend the of their coordinate measuring machines
