Going Digital: Automating the calibration management ecosystem

While the pen might be mightier than the sword, in process industries pen-and-paper based calibration systems are a weak spot that is desperately in need of attention.

Calibration is a vital component of process industries, and most process plants have some sort of system in place for managing instrument calibration operations and data. However, the systems and processes can be very different even within the same company across different plants. Methods often differ greatly in terms of cost, quality, efficiency, accuracy of data, and level of automation.

In many plants, calibration is still done manually with paper certificates – a time-consuming process that increases the possibility of human error while limiting the ability to perform analysis.

Automating the calibration ecosystem to produce traceable calibration data reduces errors and increases efficiency. An automated process also makes it easier to analyze data to implement preventive maintenance, maintain quality, and reduce costs while ensuring compliance.
