— WHAT IS COMPRESSION TESTING MACHINE CALIBRATION —

What Is Compression Testing Machine Calibration & Why Does It Matter?

Think of a quality lab that relies on a compression testing machine 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.

Compression Testing Machine 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.

Check

Compare readings against a NABL-traceable reference standard across the full measurement range.

Correct

Adjust or document deviations so your instrument reads within accepted tolerance.

Certify

Issue a NABL-accredited certificate (CC-2480) with full traceability documentation.

— OUR PROCESS —

Calibration Process — Step by Step

01

Pre-Calibration Inspection

Machine platens, load cell, hydraulic/servo system, and load indicator inspected. Platen flatness checked.

02

Force Standard Application

Certified force transfer standard applied at 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% of rated capacity in compression mode.

03

Ascending & Descending

Compression force measured in ascending and descending order. Repeatability at each point verified per IS 14858.

04

Platen Parallelism Check

Upper and lower platen parallelism verified. Ball seating mechanism checked for free movement under load.

05

As-Left Verification

Post-adjustment readings at 5 load levels. Error, repeatability, and return-to-zero documented per IS 14858.

06

NABL Certificate Issue

NABL CC-2480 certificate with force data, errors, machine class, uncertainty (k=2), IS 14858 / ISO 7500-1 traceability.

NABL Accreditation — CC-2480

Prism holds NABL CC-2480 under ISO/IEC 17025:2017. CTM calibration certificates accepted by NABL civil labs, BIS-licensed labs, and all IS/QCI civil quality audit bodies.

— NON-NABL CALIBRATION —

Non-NABL Compression Testing Machine Calibration Also Available

For routine maintenance, bulk calibration, or internal QC checks where a full NABL certificate is not mandatory — Prism offers cost-effective non-NABL calibration using the same NABL-traceable reference standards and trained engineers.

  • All measurements traceable to NABL-accredited references
  • Same Prism engineers, same lab equipment
  • Calibration report with readings and deviations provided
  • Ideal for internal QA, maintenance, or high-volume batches
  • Upgrade to full NABL certificate at any time

Traceable References

All non-NABL work uses NABL-certified reference standards — readings are still reliable and defensible.

Faster Turnaround

Without full NABL documentation, instruments return faster — ideal for urgent production schedules.

Cost-Effective

Non-NABL calibration costs less — practical for large batches or routine periodic checks.

Onsite or In-Lab

Available at your facility or at our Vatva lab — same quality, more flexibility.
