Traceable calibrations are performed by accredited laboratories (to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025). This is the globally recognized standard that defines the requirements for the competence of test and calibration laboratories.
Types of calibration
Calibration services of various types are available to match the application and the requirements. You yourself can choose the measurement uncertainty you require, or you can let us advise you: Kistler is your experienced and accredited partner for calibrations.

Force sensors
Force sensors and transducers are used in various applications where parts are pressed, formed or assembled in a specified way to meet defined requirements. Kistler offers calibration services that compare your equipment against a higher-level standard. Different types of calibration are available to match your device and requirements.
- Multi-component sensor calibration
- Force calibration up to 20 MN
- Torque calibration up to 20 kNm
- Laboratories accredited to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025
Torque and angle sensors
Dependable torque tools are essential whenever reliable threaded joints are needed in today's industrial production processes. As well as calibration, these tools need repeated verification throughout their lifetimes to maintain continuous high performance – the key to optimal results and compliance with specified standards. Kistler can calibrate sensors that measure reaction torque as well as sensors with rotating measuring shafts.
