While the demand for high-quality products is increasing dramatically, another demand is simultaneously growing — the verification of accuracy. In such industries as automotive, aerospace and medical, small variations may have a large impact on results. In these segments, verifiable measurements and traceable accuracy become increasingly necessary. Verifiable temperature measurements, for example, are prompting greater numbers of thermometer suppliers to calibrate and certify their products to prove accuracy and provide traceability, and do so within a quality management system.
Accredited certification increases customer confidence in the performance of the instrument under test and customer confidence in the accredited certification carried out. It can also allow the measurement taken to be corrected — improving the accuracy beyond that specified.
