CAL-PRO^™ Software

Optimizes Calibration Quality

When Instron Calibration Laboratory engineers developed CAL-PRO software to automate factory compensation and linearization processes, Instron's field verification/calibration specialists gained an advantage no other service can match. CAL-PRO software performs data acquisition, uncertainty analysis, checks against ISO and ASTM requirements, and allows full reports to be available at the end of the procedure.

Minimizes Equipment Downtime

Particularly, where there are load cells and several test systems, CAL-PRO software not only significantly improves reporting, but also speeds the procedure and virtually eliminates human error. This is very important because ASTM, ISO, DIN and other verification standards require readouts from chart recorders, digital displays, computers, etc., to be verified individually. Also worth noting is that ISO 17025, ISO 10012-1 (replaced MIL Spec 45662A), and ANSI 2540 require notification if verification/calibration results differ markedly from the previous verification/calibration, and if adjustments were made (“As Found” & “As Left”).

Instron's computerized documentation makes it much easier and faster to compare results from previous verifications to the next.
