Any calibrations must be started and concluded on the instrument as it is used- this instrument may have an encoded stage or photoelectric micrometers. We can perform magnification calibrations as well. Reticles are considered to be a magnification calibration. The charges for calibrations are usually included in cost of the preventive maintenance. The nature of MMI calibration procedures requires the calibration be performed at your plant on the instrument and must take the synergy of the instrument- its components and the working environment of the instrument into account.
Stereo microscopes are the only exception to the in plant calibration requirement.
Internal recheck of calibration on stereo microscopes is requested to validate MMI's calibration. Please call for other types of objectives. If MMI cannot rebuild your objective successfully- we will not charge for the rebuild. Metal type is extra. This rate is used for major repair or special projects.
