go top é go top é | DKD - calibration of material testing machines since 1996 Already since 1996 we are accredited as DKD calibration lab by national metrologic head: PTB Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt in Braunschweig.
In 1997 we extended the range of metrology to Tensile / Compression testing machines and extensometers
In 1998 we completed our accreditation range by a implementation of accreditation for impact tests. From this time on we are able to offer the full range for DKD calibration of classic mechanical testing equipment in full range.Similar like a clockwork
a testing machine has to run with high precision and high accuracy in displaying the results. To grant this we recommend to calibrate the testing machine in regular intervals (DKD = every 12 month)These calibrations should be carried out by a DKD accredited office: Only a DKD certified company was approved about the needed competence for this service. Second: Only a DKD calibration office will grant that the metrologic equipment will be recalibrated in regular intervals. Why is our DKD – calibration service less expensive? From start up of our company the service for testing machine was basic component off our policy. Here we “learned” to improve our service and to rationalize in every way: But the biggest improvement was to create our own calibration software: From data acquisition to “ready to print” certificate within only a few mouse click gives us the chance to spare costs and to offer our service for one of the best price ratio on the market.You do receive a better offer from competitor? Please compare the prices only with final prices: Several times we recognized that some suppliers offer the calibration without EXPENSES. The additional costs are shown only as term inside of the following text (in small print) like: "Accounting of travelling costs or travelling time will be on actual valid list for expenses". This sound really "official" and seams to be fair… But you are comparing our total price with incomplete prices? At the end the invoice will show…Why should calibrations carried out by combined service + DKD - lab? (not only calibration / DKD – calibration lab)? If this company will state a not conform testing machine (not fulfilled accuracy) a second company has to adjust / repair the machine. A combined company (service, repair and calibration) mostly can fix the problem directly and start a new calibration. Because you don’t need to pay for additional expenses for travelling you will save directly hundreds of Euro. In the meantime also calibration labs offer a basic service. But they can’t bring in the competence / spare parts like a qualified service company.Why is the quality of different DKD – calibration labs different?? Of course – every DKD lab is approved about the competence for this service. But some of them don’t invest for the best available calibration equipment. So their measuring uncertainty is less than it could be. So some of the DKD calibration labs only can state a class 1 machine even when your machine does show results for a class 0.5Why is a better calibration class of your testing equipment importuned? When your lab has to show the measuring uncertainty the measuring uncertainty of your DKD – calibration service company (SCHÜTZ + LICHT) is a basic for calculate this…If the calibration lab does not have the highest possible measuring uncertainty the measuring uncertainty of YOUR LAB can be factor 2 worse than it might be…
See data sheet of metrologic accredited scalesThe DKD - calibration lab of SCHÜTZ + LICHT Prüftechnik GmbH is able to confirm the smallest available measuring uncertainty because of it’s excellent calibration equipment. | |
