This can only be accomplished with test equipment that produces repeatable  accurate  and traceable measurements and\/or outputs. Without a quality calibration system in place  this cannot and will not happen. This book is about how to design  implement  maintain  and continuously improve a quality calibration system  with all the required documentation  traceability  and known uncertainty for each and every item of test equipment owned and used by any company  large or small. It will benefit companies that want to implement a program and also those that already have one in place. Some industries have tighter requirements than others on how they treat calibration; some are more specific about how their standards are read  while being vague about what is needed to meet calibration. Is there one tried-and-true quality calibration system that every organization can use as a foundation for its personalized program? There certainly is  and The Quality Calibration Handbook describes it. By using the quality calibration system outlined and demonstrated  any organization can put together its own version to meet its specific requirements and\/or regulations. Quality calibration systems are the very foundation for improving research and development (R\u0026amp;D)  production  and quality assurance arenas through accurate  reliable  and traceable calibrations of their test equipment. By ensuring the calibration of test equipment used in the production of genetic identity kits used by law enforcement at crime scenes  the guilty are often caught and the innocent exonerated. Calibrated test equipment used in support of the airline and automotive industries helps prevent disasters. At pharmaceutical companies  calibration technicians quietly lay the foundation for quality treatments that help keep us healthy  cure diseases  and sometimes prevent death. This book explains why a quality calibration system can be the difference between life and death  success and failure  andmost important to shareholders and boards of directorsprofit and loss.
