Micrometer Calibration
Calibrationhouse ensures micrometers provide precise dimensional measurements, supporting accuracy in manufacturing, engineering, and quality control applications.
What is Micrometer Calibration?
Micrometer calibration ensures these precision measurement tools provide accurate dimensional readings. Micrometers, also known as micrometer screw gauges, measure small distances with high accuracy, often down to 0.001 inches or 0.01mm. Calibration involves checking and adjusting these devices against traceable reference standards to verify their precision.
Why is calibration important for micrometers?
Micrometers are essential in mechanical engineering, manufacturing, and quality control, where precise measurements are critical. Over time, factors such as temperature, humidity, pressure, and frequent use can affect their accuracy. Regular calibration prevents measurement errors that could lead to incorrect machining, defective components, or product failures.
How often should a micrometer be calibrated?
Most manufacturers recommend annual calibration for micrometers, though frequent use or exposure to harsh conditions may require more frequent checks. Routine cleaning and in-house verification between calibrations help maintain accuracy and prolong the device’s lifespan.
How does Calibrationhouse calibrate micrometers?
Calibrationhouse uses highly accurate reference standards and test procedures to verify micrometer accuracy. Digital and analogue micrometers are calibrated by comparing their measurements against known standard values and making necessary adjustments. We provide detailed calibration certificates confirming compliance with national standards.
Can Calibrationhouse calibrate all types of micrometers?
Yes, Calibrationhouse calibrates a wide range of micrometers, including external, internal, depth, and digital micrometers from various manufacturers. We ensure each device meets industry and manufacturer specifications.
Does Calibrationhouse offer onsite calibration for micrometers?
Yes, Calibrationhouse provides onsite micrometer calibration at customer premises across the UK, allowing businesses to minimise downtime. Our rapid turnaround service is also available at our County Durham laboratory for customers who prefer to send in their equipment.
