— WHAT IS ROCKWELL HARDNESS TESTER CALIBRATION —
Think of a quality lab that relies on a rockwell hardness tester for daily measurements. If it has drifted even slightly from its true value, every reading becomes unreliable — leading to defective products, failed audits, or safety risks. Regular calibration is the only way to confirm your instrument is telling the truth.
Rockwell Hardness Tester calibration means comparing its readings against a NABL-traceable certified reference standard at multiple test points, recording the deviations, adjusting where possible, and issuing an NABL certificate — accepted by ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and all quality auditors.
Compare readings against a NABL-traceable reference standard across the full measurement range.
Adjust or document deviations so your instrument reads within accepted tolerance.
Issue a NABL-accredited certificate (CC-2480) with full traceability documentation.

— OUR PROCESS —
Tester received and tagged. Load mechanism, indenter, anvil, and reference blocks inspected for wear and damage.
Certified NPL-traceable reference blocks used to measure as-found deviation on HRC, HRB, and required scales.
Applied loads (minor and major) verified using certified load cell. Deviations corrected per ISO 6508-2 requirements.
Depth measuring system verified against calibrated reference. Dial gauge or LVDT linearity confirmed across full stroke.
Post-correction readings on reference blocks at three hardness levels. Repeatability and reproducibility calculated.
NABL CC-2480 certificate issued with as-found/as-left data, expanded uncertainty (k=2), ISO 6508 traceability.

Prism holds NABL CC-2480 under ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Rockwell hardness certificates accepted by IATF 16949, ISO 9001, NADCAP, and all major audit bodies across India.
— NON-NABL CALIBRATION —
For routine maintenance or workshops not requiring NABL certification — same engineers, same reference blocks, lower cost.
All calibrations verified using NPL-traceable Rockwell reference blocks — only certificate type differs.
Non-NABL jobs completed faster — ideal for large batches and routine maintenance schedules.
Lower cost than NABL — right for workshop testers and non-critical production equipment.
HRC, HRB, HRA, and all Superficial scales calibrated by the same specialist team.
— AREAS WE SERVICE —
Engineers carry certified reference blocks to your facility. Onsite Rockwell tester calibration with minimal downtime.
