Speed Indicator Calibration Services
Line speed sets throughput, cure time, and coating weight — three reasons the indicator can’t drift.
ACS Calibration delivers NIST-traceable, audit-ready speed indicator calibration, available at the ACS central lab or directly on-site at facilities across the Southeast. Frequency to 10 MHz, rotational speed to 99,900 rpm, and timers to 24 hours are on our accredited scope, so ISO/IEC 17025 accredited certificates are available on request.
Speed, Time & Frequency Instruments We Calibrate
RPM, hertz, and seconds — from plant-floor tachometers to laboratory centrifuges.
Frequently serviced brands: Traceable (Control Company), Shimpo, Extech, Eppendorf, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Micron — plus dozens more.
When Speed Is the Recipe
Speed indicators on lines, extruders, coaters, and winders aren’t just information displays — they’re recipe parameters. Feet per minute determines dwell time in the oven, coating thickness on the web, tension on the winder. An indicator reading 3% fast quietly shortens every cure and thins every coat while the recipe sheet says all is well.
We calibrate speed indicators under our accredited scope with reference signals across the operating range, documenting as-found and as-left readings — so when product trends shift, the speed measurement is one variable you can strike off the suspect list.
Verify the whole chain: the tachometer maintenance uses for checks, the RPM indicators upstream, and the timers in the same control scheme — one onsite visit does the line end to end.
What You Get With Every Calibration
- NIST-traceable calibration certificate with real measurement data — not just a pass/fail sticker
- As-found and as-left readings, so drift is documented
- ISO/IEC 17025 accredited certificate with reported uncertainty — on request
- Calibration label with due date, plus a reminder before your next calibration is due
Why Companies Choose ACS for Speed Indicator Calibration
NIST-Traceable, Accredited on Request
Every calibration is NIST-traceable with real measurement data. Frequency (1 Hz–10 MHz), rotational speed (to 99,900 rpm), and timers/stopwatches (to 24 hours) are on our ISO/IEC 17025 accredited scope — accredited certificates available whenever your quality system requires them.
4–6 Business Day Typical Turnaround
Keep production moving. Most instruments are typically completed in 4 to 6 business days from arrival, with rush options available when a line is down.
Flexible Logistics
Mail your instruments in, or schedule onsite calibration and we come to your floor — serving Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee, South Carolina, and beyond.
