Welding equipment calibration in Hull.

Hull's offshore wind, marine and process work is mostly done to strict quality systems, and a missing or out-of-date calibration certificate is one of the easiest findings an auditor can raise.

Hull

Welding equipment calibration for Hull firms.

We come over the Humber Bridge and calibrate on site, usually doing every machine in one visit so your welders are only stood down once.

What you get

What's included.

  • Calibration and validation to BS EN IEC 60974-14, the current standard (it replaced BS EN 50504).
  • Current, arc voltage and, on MIG/MAG sets, wire feed speed measured against traceable reference instruments.
  • Standard or precision grade, depending on whether the work is manual or mechanised.
  • A certificate per machine with the readings and result, and a sticker showing the next due date.
  • Done on site, so machines stay where they're used.

Do you calibrate on site in Hull?

Yes. We bring traceable instruments to you and calibrate machines where they're used, across Hull and East Yorkshire.

How often should welding machines be calibrated?

Annually is what most quality systems and auditors expect, and sooner after a repair, damage, or if the machine starts behaving differently. Our guide on calibration intervals goes into more detail.
