Calibration of length gauges at The National Laboratory
The National Laboratory for Length and Dimensional Metrology offers calibration high precision length gauges with a resolution down to 0,01 micrometres.
Purpose
The national laboratories are responsible for maintaining the national reference standards for each measurement quantity and spreading metrological competence and traceability to industry and society at large. The national reference standards are the highest level of traceability in Sweden.
A calibration performed at a national laboratory fulfils all typical traceability and accreditation requirements that commonly exist in industry and society at large.
Method
We calibrate many different types of length gauges, for example linear gauges, linear potentiometers, indicators, dial test indicators and string potentiometers, where the resolution could be as low as 0,01 µm. The length gauges can be with or without measuring force and showing the result in mm (µm) or voltage (mV). We also perform calibration of gauges with lower measuring accuracy and/or longer measuring range up to 2 meters for example string/wire linear potentiometers.
Deliveries
The calibration results are reported in a digital calibration certificate in Swedish or English which states that the calibration was performed at a national laboratory.
