Record! 18-inch flow nozzle manufactured in just 20 weeks
Stefan Schneider | WIKA insightAt the end of 2018, for a flow measurement application in India, the WIKA Group manufactured a PTC-6 nozzle with a diameter of 18 inches for the first time - and in a record time of just 20 weeks. The overall length of this nozzle, including upstream/downstream piping, …
Five points you should know about software validation
Christian Elbert | Know-howValidation of calibration software - as required by ISO 17025, for example - is a topic that people don't like to talk about. Often there is uncertainty about the following: Which software actually must be validated? If so, who should look after it? Which requirements …
Traceability
Matthias Bundschuh | Know-howMeasuring instruments for pressure and temperature are used in almost all areas of industrial manufacturing. As a result of continuous mechanical, chemical and thermal loading, these instruments age and can therefore not guarantee the correctness of the measured values …
“Oxygen, oil and grease free” in calibration technology
Jens Rollmann | Pressure, ProductsOxygen, the gas essential for life, is far more complex in industrial applications than our daily inhalation and exhalation suggests. Industry – especially in the chemical, pharmaceutical or medical engineering fields – is, time and again, finding itself confronted …
