Calibration of Test Equipment as part of a Preventative Maintenance Plan


In your manufacturing facility you probably have some kind of test equipment. There might be multimeters for checking electrical values, torque wrenches that are used on an assembly line to ensure bolts on assemblies are installed correctly, scales for measuring bins of parts by the number of parts in the bin, and a host of other physical items. If you have a testing facility in an electronics plant and need to conform to FCC Part 15 of the CFR, you might have a microwave testing chamber with microwave generators, amplifiers and antennas for this testing. These are just a few of countless examples of test equipment you might have.
