Calibration Systems Workshop - Manchester 

Understanding Vibration, Shock, and Dynamic Pressure Calibration

Join PCB Piezotrinics for a free, full-day seminar on sensor technology and best practices in calibration. Serving the dynamic testing industry for more than 50 years, PCB Piezotronics understands the challenges of taking precision measurements. Laboratory managers, technicians, engineers and metrologists responsible for maintaining and calibrating vibration instrumentation are encouraged to attend. We are here to help you ensure the quality of your results.

With six different calibration systems onsite, you’ll have hands-on calibration opportunities throughout the day.

From ensuring accurate measurement capabilities to ensuring your peace of mind, a calibration program is a crucial part of your work. Learn more about how proper sensor calibration techniques offer you these benefits while mitigating risk. The impact of calibration methods and component selection on uncertainty in calibration will also be discussed.
