Force Calibration.

Calibration Select – Simply better service.

We offer expert force calibration for your measurement device .

Benefits of dynamometer, force measurement and load cell calibration at Avery Weigh-Tronix:

UKAS ISO calibrations
We can offer UKAS / ISO 17025 standard calibrations
True 5 day service
Our 5 day lead time is inclusive of collection and return, minimising disruption to your business while maximising uptime*
Send more, save more
We’re able to offer significant discounts on bulk calibrations of 10 items or more
Single-source calibration
We also calibrate electrical, pressure, temperature, torque and test weight equipment, as well as industrial scales.

*Due to the specialist nature of the processes involved in the calibration and testing of loadcells using our deadweight machines in our UKAS force laboratory, we are unable to offer a 5-day turn-around on the calibration or testing of load cells. All force calibration and testing, using our deadweight machines, is therefore exempt from our 5-day turnaround guarantee.

Expert force calibration service for:

Force gauges
Crane Scales
Dynamometers
Load links
Load cells
The more you send, the more you save.
Quantity discounts available when booking in 10 or more items for calibration.

Force gauge calibration:

At our force calibration laboratory, we offer force calibration services for all types of force gauges with analogue and digital indicators, including Dillon force gauge calibration. Each force gauge is checked and verified, then calibrated according to ISO standards to ensure the highest possible accuracy.

Each calibration is traceable to national standards and we provide a force calibration certificate on successful completion of the process.

Force calibration service FAQ.

The answers to questions we get asked most frequently.

#1 What is force calibration?

The process for calibration of force measurement devices involves the comparison of applied forces in a test environment to ISO standards. The standard tested against defines the range and accuracy of the device being calibrated.

Devices regularly used in force measurement applications need to undergo precise force calibration, so they can be depended on to deliver their expected performance.

#2 How often should I calibrate force measurement devices?

We recommend an annual calibration to ensure that your force measurement devices are performing as expected and they conform to manufacturers standards. More frequent calibration may be desired depending on frequency of use.

Replacement service:

If your force measurement device cannot be calibrated or is uneconomical to repair, we will contact you straight away and offer a branded like-for-like replacement. We will supply the replacement calibrated to your original order requirements.
