Processing on behalf of third parties

Calibration services essential for companies that operate for third-party clients and must demonstrate the conformity of the instruments used in production cycles.

When calibration is not enough for you, it must also be enough for the customer.

Those who work on behalf of third parties are not only accountable to their own quality management system: they are also accountable to the customer’s specifications, which often require precise documentation on the instruments used to inspect the part. A generic calibration report, or worse, an expired instrument, can block the acceptance of a batch even if the part itself is correct.

Micro-Tec calibration of gauges, comparators and dimensional instruments with certified standards, and issues calibration reports or Accredia certificates depending on what your customer’s specifications require. Each document remains linked to the instrument’s history, ready to be presented in the event of an inspection or second-party audit.

On-site calibration, without slowing down the order.

In third-party manufacturing, delivery times are often set by the customer and are non-negotiable. Sending an instrument to a laboratory for a week can mean delivering late or having to interrupt an ongoing inspection. With onsite calibration, a Micro-Tec technician comes directly to the company, checks the instruments on site and immediately provides the report.

The technician reports any instruments nearing the end of their service life, recommends the most suitable acceptance limits for the type of inspection required by the customer and answers the questions of those who will use the instrument for the order. We cover Northern Italy up to Rome, with interventions that can also be scheduled across multiple departments on the same day.

The advantages for those who work on behalf of third parties.

Two reasons why companies working on behalf of third parties choose Micro-Tec for the management of measuring instruments.

Ready documentation

Ready documentation for the customer
Calibration reports and Accredia certificates linked to the instrument’s history, accessible via QR code: useful to attach to a batch or to show during a second-party audit.

No delays to the order

Onsite calibration avoids shipping and laboratory downtime, so the instrument is operational again in a few hours instead of a week.

FAQ.

The most frequently asked questions among companies working on behalf of third parties before scheduling a calibration.

Is the standard calibration report sufficient for a customer’s specifications?

It depends on what the customer requires. For many specifications, the standard calibration report is sufficient; if the specification requires an accredited calibration, you can opt for the Accredia certificate.

Which instruments do you calibrate for third-party manufacturing?

Vernier calipers, depth calipers, micrometers, comparators, bore gauges, as well as pressure gauges and electrical instrumentation, depending on the type of inspection required for the machining process. For special instruments, contact us before scheduling the intervention.

How long does the instrument remain unavailable with onsite calibration?

A few hours. The technician performs the verification directly at the company and the instrument is operational again the same day, without slowing down the ongoing order.
