An important part of production is to carefully monitor and control temperature, speed, volume, weight, or mass. To ensure these measurements are always accurate, manufacturers need to calibrate their equipment and instruments regularly.

Devising a proper equipment calibration schedule can be a challenge, especially if you’re starting from scratch. But don’t fret; this article will explain:
• What calibration is
• What are the main standards and types of equipment calibration
• The basics of the calibration process
• How to set up a proper equipment calibration program
