One accredited lab for LA’s instrument fleet
Los Angeles County holds one of the largest manufacturing bases in America — aerospace and defense, medical device, food production, entertainment technology, and thousands of machine shops. Much of that equipment ends up shipped out of state by national calibration chains. Ours stays in Southern California: every instrument is calibrated at our 8,000 sq ft laboratory in Placentia, under ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation from A2LA (certificate 4296.01).
Free routes run through LA County every Tuesday and Thursday. Your equipment rides with our drivers both directions, standard turnaround is 7–10 business days, and expedited 24/48/72-hour service is available when production can’t wait.
On-site calibration across Los Angeles
For chambers, ovens, surface plates, and production equipment that shouldn’t travel, our technicians calibrate on-site anywhere in LA County with NIST-traceable standards — including AMS 2750 temperature uniformity surveys for aerospace heat-treat operations and after-hours emergency calls when a line is down.
