Calibration World Issue 1-2006 - Beamex - #2

Taking calibration to a higher level

Dear Calibration Professional, I am happy to introduce to you the first issue of Beamex corporate magazine - CALIBRATION WORLD. The magazine's target group comprises calibration professionals around the world and the main purpose of the magazine is to provide insightful articles, tools, customer case stories, practical tips as well as relevant news and information for the calibration professional. Your input and feedback are extremely valuable to this magazine, so if you have any comments, ideas or even stories that you would like to share with other readers of CALIBRATION WORLD, feel free to contact us.

The first issue of CALIBRATION WORLD tackles some of the most demanding requirements calibration has presently. The requirements are set by corporate management, the calibration environment and regulatory authorities.

The first and leading article in this issue discusses calibration planning and improvements in productivity. Although many companies based in the USA and Europe have already implemented major cost-saving programs, improvements in productivity and efficiency still remain among the top priorities. More resourceful calibration planning can improve productivity and the first article of this magazine will present you with a few ideas on how to do it.

The second article discusses calibration in hazardous areas. Several things need to be considered when performing calibrations in a special environment, including the type of equipment needed for doing it.

I hope our magazine will assist you in learning new things and provide you with fresh ideas. Enjoy your reading!
