calibration procedures

Calibration procedures involve comparing a device’s measurements to a known standard or reference to ensure accuracy. This process identifies any discrepancies and adjusts the device so it provides correct readings. For example, a scale might be calibrated using weights of a known mass, or a thermometer checked against a standard temperature. Regular calibration ensures consistent, reliable results and helps maintain quality and safety standards. It is a fundamental step in managing measurement accuracy across various industries and applications.
