XL laser calibration
Calibration certificate
Each XL laser is delivered with a calibration certificate. This demonstrates that the
system has been calibrated at the Renishaw factory against reference systems
with traceability to National Standards. It is proof of the equipment’s performance
as tested before delivery. Visit the Calibration product quality and conformance
webpage for more information.
The certificate is a valuable document. You should keep it safe as it may be
required to satisfy your own or your customers quality assurance requirements.
Duplicate documents can be supplied but there will be a charge for this service.
Certificate content
Each certificate is unique and is identified by a certificate number. All XL laser
certificates provide the following key information:
• Serial number of calibrated XL laser
• Specific test results and graph
• Statement of accuracy
• Traceability data (calibration details, see below)
• Test conditions and methodology
The first page gives graphical representation of test results and specification
limits as well as tabulated details of the specific test results and uncertainty of
measurement. This enables you to see clearly whether or not the unit meets
published specifications and/or your own requirements. To enable “traceability”,
details of the test equipment used are given. The date of testing and the date
of printing the certificate are separately noted and the results are signed by a
Renishaw authorised person.
The second page gives generic details of the test procedure, test environment,
and applicable standards, all in accordance with requirements of ISO 17025.
