Maximum Precision for Industry: PCE Expands Expertise and Capacity
Holistic Equipment Management by PCE Instruments: The Synergy of Manufacturing Competence and Manufacturer-Independent Calibration Expertise
In industrial quality assurance, the reliability of measurement results is a fundamental prerequisite for stable processes. Particularly in the handling of bulk materials, where parameters such as temperature, humidity, and weight directly influence product quality, regular monitoring with calibrated measuring instruments is essential. PCE Instruments combines its technological experience as a manufacturer with the services of a specialized calibration laboratory. To meet the increasing demand for precise measurements and short turnaround times, the company is currently expanding its capacities significantly: the new calibration laboratory will be completed later this year, providing three times the floor space of the previous location to accommodate growing requirements for throughput and testing variety.
A key aspect of this service offering is its manufacturer independence. In addition to maintaining its own measurement and testing equipment, PCE Instruments performs calibrations (ISO or DAkkS) as well as legal verifications for devices from numerous other brands. The portfolio includes brands such as Fluke, Testo, Gossen Metrawatt, Kanomax, and Megger, as well as specialists like Mettler Toledo, JUMO, KERN & Sohn, or Chauvin Arnoux. With expertise in over 50 different measurement variables, this approach allows for the consolidation of equipment management with a single partner, reducing administrative effort for companies.
To minimize production downtime, logistical workflows have been optimized. A collection service for instruments directly at the customer’s site, followed by return shipping, supports efficient processing, which typically takes five to seven business days within Europe. Physical calibration is supplemented by digital documentation management. Customers can track the processing status online and access a digital archive of their calibration certificates. This form of data management simplifies audit preparation, as all records are available centrally and promptly. Through the combination of expanded laboratory capacity and optimized processes, PCE Instruments helps companies ensure the operational readiness of their measurement technology.
