Inspection

A fully equipped temperature-controlled inspection department for both in-process and final inspection.

A good stock of conventional metrology equipment is complemented with digital height gauges, hardness testing, shadowgraph and Faro arm.

Wherever possible, calibration of equipment is carried out in-house using equipment externally calibrated to national standards.

For calibrations beyond the scope of our own facility, the services of a UKAS accredited laboratory are retained.
