UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation isnโt on our roadmap. Itโs been part of our calibration laboratoryโs operations for many years. ๐ฌ
Investing in sophisticated calibration equipment is one thing. Establishing, maintaining and ensuring an independently accredited laboratory flourishes is quite another.
At PCM, weโve invested significant time and effort refining the facilities, procedures, systems and technical expertise needed to deliver calibration services to the highest standards.
Our UKAS accreditation isnโt simply a certificate hanging on the wall. Itโs the result of rigorous, ongoing external assessment of our technical competence.
That means demonstrating:

Appropriately trained, experienced and assessed engineers.

โ
๐ค๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ถ๐บ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐
Robust management systems, meticulous records and regular independent scrutiny.
The equipment itself is pretty impressive too. ๐ช
Five force calibration machines give us UKAS accredited calibration from as little as 50 N up to a mighty 5,000 kN, depending on the loading configuration. We also offer UKAS accredited displacement calibration up to 100 mm, and traceable torque calibration up to ยฑ5,000 Nm.
But what really sets PCM apart is the engineering behind it. We donโt just calibrate load cells. We design them, make them, instrument them and repair them, and when needed we build bespoke calibration fixtures on our own CNC machines.
Over 40 years of load measurement expertise. Nearly seven years of UKAS accreditation. And a laboratory that keeps moving onwards and upwards. ๐
Because when measurement accuracy matters, independently demonstrated competence matters too.
