When the lives of armed services members, the completion of their missions and literally millions of taxpayer dollars are on the line, there’s no room for inconsistency or imperfection in the equipment and tools that the military employs to fulfill its duties. This is why, for organizations ranging from defense contractors to government agencies, the accurate testing and calibration of military equipment to ensure consistent product quality is a prerequisite for success.

From dimensional and physical calibrations to electronic and flow measurements, nothing can be left to chance in a mission-critical setting. Therefore, regularly scheduled calibration and testing services can mitigate the risk of unforeseen downtime and possible product failure.

For defense-related organizations, forging a strong partnership with an accredited metrology laboratory is essential. MicronPA is just that type of facility. We’re a longstanding defense equipment calibration company serving the needs of defense contractors and military organizations in Pennsylvania. Located in York, PA, we can provide on-site service at your convenience.

You can count on our highly-trained team for speed, accuracy and excellent value for all your defense testing, calibration and validation needs.

Serving the Defense Sector & Defense Contractors

MicronPA works closely with defense contractors to provide electronic, Radio Frequency (RF), mechanical calibrations and dimensional inspections and 3D scanning services. We can perform highly precise defense calibrations to ISO/IEC 17025, ANSI/NCSL Z540-1:1994 and other relevant standards.

Our current clients in the defense sectors include BAE, General Dynamics, Triumph and many other prominent contractors. We specialize in tailoring our defense calibration services to match the needs of every organization we work with. Let us assess your requirements and put together a convenient defense calibration schedule that will meet your compliance obligations and ensure your measurement accuracy is always up to speed.

NIST-Traceable Defense Equipment Calibration Services

On-site gage calibration is one of our core service offerings for defense clients.

We provide on-site and laboratory calibrations for electrical, RF, temperature, pressure, force measurement and other sensitive equipment such as:

  • hand torque tools
  • click wrenches
  • torque multipliers
  • hydraulic wrenches
  • pneumatic wrenches

All defense calibrations are carried out in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025, ANSI/NCSL Z540-1:1994, and ANSI/NCSL Z540.3 with traceable to NIST standards and documented in a long-form certificate outlining before and after values, as well as other relevant information.

We provide both physical records and secure online certificate management services that simplify your reporting and auditing processes. In addition, our online certifications are easy to access, have the calibration history of any given tool clearly listed and are automatically backed up for the safety and consistency of your data management.

While we can calibrate most equipment on-site, highly specialized equipment and/or clients outside the Central Pennsylvania region may require laboratory calibration at our York, PA facility. Typically, you can expect results from our lab in five days or less.

Pick-up, delivery and rush services are also available for an additional fee.

Inspection and Dimensional Validation Services

In addition to certified defense equipment calibrations, we also offer third-party 2D and 3D dimensional testing, first article testing and capability studies, PPAP, Gage R & R and other related services. Using a variety of sophisticated tools, we can provide laser scanning, as well as contact and non-contact dimensional inspections. In addition, our services are highly useful for prototyping, repeatability and reliability studies, research and development, and other applications.

We specialize in matching the right testing protocol to your application. Contact a team member directly to discuss your project and request a consultation.
