We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Calibration Laboratory",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Accreditations cover quality and calibration from
Endevco, which we summarised at the time by saying "Endevco has renewed its ISO9001:2000 accreditation and has received certification from the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation for its sensor calibration laboratory".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Humidity calibration range explained from
Michell Instruments: "Integrated calibration systems provide traceable calibration of humidity sensors in the user's own laboratory".
In May 2007, we covered the news from Testo
concerning its Testo 6621
- take a look at Sensor monitors HVAC humidity
which says: "Commissioning large-scale projects is fast and straightforward with Testo's P2ATM software".
Take a look also at the news release from HBM UK, Force transducers prevent manual setup problems,
as well as Torque wrenches are calibrated on-site from HBM UK,
and Full range of instruments on display at Mtec from Extech Instruments.
