The metrology point

When using a scale or weighing terminal, you need to be sure that the results are accurate and precise. Der periodische Kontrolldienst der Kontrollstelle TopControl trägt dazu bei.

The TopControl inspection body is equipped with specific and appropriate equipment and its staff is highly trained, not least due to the experience gained so far and as a result of continuous and targeted training. We are already a point of reference for many customers in the food industry, and service can be carried out either at the customer’s site or in the laboratory.

Scale calibration – Taratura ISO

The service of calibration with issuing of an ISO protocol is also offered. This is often required by certification bodies. The calibration laboratory of TopControl GmbH is authorised to calibrate the following measuring instruments:

Accuracy class III non-automatic weighing instruments with a load capacity of up to 80,000 kg
Accuracy class II non-automatic weighing instruments with a load capacity of up to 15 kg
Automatic weighing instruments type labeller, checkweigher, batcher up to 22,500 kg
Accuracy class F2 calibration weights up to 15 kg
Accuracy class M1 calibration weights up to 50 kg as well as 1,000 kg and 2,000 kg

Calibration vs. official verification

In principle, every scale can be calibrated, but not every calibrated scale. The scales that can be calibrated bear the marking “M”. Calibrations are mandatory by law, calibrations are required by ISO.
