If the instrument is used for critical applications which require a high level of accuracy and official calibration recognition , then it may be necessary to request an ACCREDIA calibration certificate. However, if the instrument is used in less critical applications or for internal company use, a calibration report with traceability to primary standards may be sufficient.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To learn more about the differences, we invite you to read the article <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/en\/calibration\/quality-control-certificate-or-calibration-report\/\">Certificato di indaginamento o calibration dei strumenti?<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why rely on S.A.M.A. Italia for calibration services?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to ensure that your products are of the highest quality and increase customer satisfaction, rely on our calibration services with traceability to primary standards for your ultrasonic thickness gauges.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By doing so, you will be certain if your measuring instruments are accurate and reliable for measuring the thickness of your products.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore,\u00a0<strong>we\u2019ll send back your calibrated instruments quickly, allowing you to work no interruptions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>S.A.M.A. Italia is a member of UNI,<\/strong>\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the Italian Association for Standardization<\/a><\/strong>.
