After getting into new business premises back in 2018 and launching Axapta in 2019, WIKA Mexico is taking a further step this season: The calibration laboratory for pressure has been commissioned in accordance with Mexican standard NMX-EC-17025-IMNC-2018/ ISO/IEC 17025 (2017).
The new calibration system functioning
A new employee was recruited last August to take care of the certification process and operation of the laboratory. This April, WIKA Mexico was accredited by the Mexican certification company EMA. Through the preparatory phase, typical tasks were processed, including a laboratory ring comparison and internal audits. The initial accreditation audit was completed without any issues being raised.
The number of services includes the calibration of process pressure gauges, and of simple reference devices. Calibration services which were previously outsourced are actually provided in-house. This speeds up that service for customers, and WIKA is winning more orders. In the next step, the range of calibration services is to be extended to include higher-end pressure calibrations, and temperature will be introduced in the laboratory as a new measurand.
Note
