Calibration management for your industry

Each regulated industry answers to its own auditors, but the calibration work underneath is the same. Pick yours to see how Axiospec handles it.

For medical device manufacturers

Medical Device Manufacturing

In medical device manufacturing, a single measurement can decide whether a product is safe to ship, so your calibration records have to satisfy a notified body and an FDA investigator alike. ISO 13485 clause 7.6 and FDA's Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) under 21 CFR 820 both require you to control measuring equipment, keep it traceable, and prove that a drifted instrument did not send suspect product into the field. Axiospec gives device manufacturers documented, attributable calibration records, a tamper-evident audit ledger, and reverse traceability from a drifted reference standard to every calibration it stood behind, so those records exist by default instead of getting rebuilt the week before an audit.

For aerospace and defense suppliers

Aerospace & Defense

In aerospace and defense, one out-of-tolerance gage can put suspect parts on a flight-critical assembly. Primes and defense customers expect calibration records that trace back to national standards, survive AS9100 and Nadcap audits, and show which parts each instrument measured. Axiospec is cloud calibration management software that keeps the calibration side of that history in one place. That means every reading, certificate, and reference standard used. Which parts each gage measured stays in your own production records. You log as-found and as-left readings with an automatic out-of-tolerance check, issue PDF certificates, and keep a tamper-evident ledger you can hand an auditor in one click. Axiospec documents and organizes the work. Your registrar or auditor decides conformance.

For automotive suppliers

Automotive Manufacturing

In automotive manufacturing, every gauge in your control plan feeds a dimension a customer will hold you to, and IATF 16949 section 7.1.5 expects calibration and verification against traceable standards, measurement systems analysis on those gauges, and records that show the status of each one. When a gauge drifts, the question is not only what to recalibrate but which parts it measured. Axiospec gives automotive suppliers one system to keep measuring resources under control, capture the data behind every calibration and MSA study, and produce records a customer or IATF third-party auditor can follow from the instrument back to the reference standard.

For food and beverage plants

Food and Beverage Manufacturing

In a food plant, the thermometer on the cook step, the scale on the packing line and the probe in the cooler all back a food safety decision. The FSMA preventive controls rule lists calibration of process monitoring and verification instruments as a verification activity. USDA HACCP verification includes it too. SQF, BRCGS and FSSC 22000 auditors check that each device is identified, calibrated and acted on when it fails. Axiospec keeps every device in one list on its own interval and records each calibration with its readings and certificate, so your auditors and your preventive controls qualified individual can follow the record.

For water and wastewater utilities

Water and Wastewater Utilities

At a treatment plant, the flow meter on the outfall, the chlorine analyzer on the clearwell and the balance in the lab all produce numbers that end up on a permit report or a compliance result. NPDES permittees keep calibration and maintenance records for at least three years. Drinking water rules set short checks for online analyzers. Certified labs follow the calibration schedules in EPA's lab certification manual. Axiospec keeps plant and lab equipment in one list, by site, with each item on its own interval and a record an inspector can follow.

For oil and gas manufacturers and service companies

Oil and Gas

In oil and gas, a pressure gauge on a test bench, a torque wrench on a make-up line or a thread gauge in the shop decides whether equipment ships or goes back to work. API Specification Q1, 10th edition, clause 5.8 asks manufacturers to control all testing, measuring, monitoring and detection equipment, including tools owned by employees or from other sources. API Q2 asks the same of service companies. Axiospec keeps that equipment in one list with its status, readings and certificates, so an API auditor can follow each item back to its reference standard.
