ISO/IEC 17025 Accredited Calibration for Starrett Instruments
SIMCO offers ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration services for applicable Starrett instruments, measurement ranges, and parameters.
Accredited calibration may include:
- As-found and as-left measurement data
- Documented measurement uncertainty
- Traceability to the International System of Units through national metrology institutes such as NIST or other recognized reference standards
- Pass/fail statements, where applicable
- Calibration documentation to support audits, compliance activities, and quality-management requirements
Accredited calibration is often required when measurement results directly affect product acceptance, process validation, manufacturing quality, or customer quality requirements.
Why Calibrate Starrett Equipment?
Starrett instruments are commonly used to verify critical dimensions, tolerances, depths, radii, and geometric characteristics. Over time, normal wear, environmental exposure, contamination, handling, and frequency of use can affect measurement performance.
Without routine calibration, inaccurate measurements can contribute to:
- Product quality issues
- Scrap and rework
- Process capability concerns
- Incorrect acceptance decisions
- Failed audits
- Compliance risk
- Increased measurement uncertainty
- False acceptance or false rejection of products or processes
Routine calibration helps verify that Starrett instruments continue to perform within applicable specifications and remain suitable for their intended use.
For quality-driven organizations, accredited calibration also provides objective evidence of traceability, technical competence, and documented uncertainty to support customer requirements, internal quality systems, and regulatory expectations.
