Laboratory Equipment and Instrument Calibration and Certification Testing
Key components of effective laboratory equipment and instrument calibration and certification testing include the following:
Accredited calibration facilities: Use of an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory facility to conduct calibration and certification. Accreditation helps ensure calibration and certification processes meet industry standards for accuracy and traceability.
Extensive testing coverage: Covering a spectrum of laboratory equipment and instruments, including, but not limited to, balances, pipettes, pH meters, temperature controllers, and other equipment and devices from various manufacturers.
Calibration to national and international standards: Utilizing calibrated reference standards traceable to national and international measurement standards to confirm that equipment is calibrated accurately and in accordance with recognized standards.
Compliance and documentation: Providing detailed calibration certificates and test reports to document processes and results. These documents serve as proof of compliance for audits, regulatory inspections, and quality management systems.
Preventive maintenance: Identifying potential issues through regular calibration to detect and address deviations and help prevent equipment malfunctions, reduce downtime, and extend the lifespan of instruments.
On-site and off-site calibration: Performing calibration services at remote facilities or sending equipment to a dedicated calibration laboratory for testing and certification.
Calibration reminders: Providing timely notifications to keep calibration and testing on schedule and maintain accurate measurements throughout laboratory operations.
Laboratory equipment and instrument calibration and certification testing offers laboratory technicians and researchers confidence that their equipment performs at optimum levels and meets quality and industry compliance standards.

Grainger Hood Snap-On Bronze
The Grainger 14G271 is a Westward brand 1/4-inch drive socket set. It contains 15 SAE sockets ranging from 1/4 inch to 9/16 inch and 15 metric sockets ranging from 4mm to 14mm. The chrome vanadium sockets have a knurled design for oil and slip resistance. The set comes in a molded case for storage and portability. This socket set is ideal for automotive and machinery applications that require standard shallow sockets in both SAE and metric sizes. The Westward brand provides quality tools at an affordable price point.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Nioprobe AFM SPM Calibration Specimen
The Nioprobe device is used to determine the shape at the very apex of the tip probe for microscopy measurements.
The physical probe used in AFM imaging is not ideally sharp. As a consequence, an AFM image does not reflect the true sample topography impartially, but rather represents the interaction of the tip with the sample surface. There is no avoiding this imperfection, which sets real limits on what may be validly inferred from an AFM image.
Whether one is engaged in detailed, quantitative metrology or is simply using AFM images as a interpretive aid, it is imperative be able to assess these limits. The key here is to possess a reliable estimate of the sharpness of the tip apex. Reverse imaging of the probe is the most convenient means of obtaining the effective radius of the probe. For this purpose, the ideal characterization sample would consist of small, stiff, spiked features.
