Calibration Lab Overview

General overview of Morehouse's calibration lab and equipment.

Transcript

00:00:01 the following video contains information about morehouse force calibration facility which contains five state-of-the-art deadweight machines and two universal calibrating machines capable of measuring forces from 0.1 lbf through 2.25 million lbs 120 lbf capacity deadweight machine accurate to 20 parts per million

00:00:24 our 1100 lbf capacity deadweight machine accurate to 20 parts per million our 6600 lbf capacity deadweight machine accurate to 0.002 percent of applied force or 20 parts per million our 12 000 pound capacity deadweight machine accurate to 20 parts per million our 100 000 pound capacity elongated hydraulic

00:01:10 calibrating machine which is as accurate as the reference standard our 120 000 pound capacity dead weight machine accurate to 0.002 percent of applied force morehouse is the first a2la accredited force calibration facility to offer deadweight calibrations up to 120 000 pounds certified traceable

00:01:35 directly to nist many other force calibration facilities may be a2la accredited but do not offer a2la accredited astm e74 calibrations the standards used to perform the calibration directly affects measurement uncertainty the following slide shows this uncertainty progression

00:01:57 morehouse has the ability to create design and build custom fixturing to meet our customer demands our 2.25 million capacity morehouse universal calibrating machine is capable of calibrating up to 2.25 million in compression and 1.25 million in tension you
