Factory calibration
Definition
Factory calibration refers to the process of adjusting and fine-tuning the parameters of a device or instrument during its manufacturing process to ensure that it meets specified performance standards and accuracy requirements. This calibration process is typically carried out in the factory or production facility where the device is being manufactured. The goal of factory calibration is to make sure that each device coming off the production line performs as closely as possible to a predefined reference or standard.
Definition and Description
Factory calibrations refer to the initial precision adjustments and fine-tuning of the settings performed by the manufacturer during the production process. These calibrations establish the baseline performance and accuracy of the device, ensuring that it operates within specified tolerances and provides reliable measurements or functions according to the intended specifications. Over time, the accuracy of the device may shift, and periodic recalibration may be necessary to maintain its performance.
