Welcome to our new Instron Community Blog hosted by Instron. It is a compilation of the freshest, brightest, most-talented minds that Instron has to offer. The world of materials science is so vast and encompasses the broadest range of industries, materials, and challenges that no one person can possibly possess all the knowledge required to be the resident expert – or master of materials science. It takes a small army behind the scenes collaborating and sharing technical know-how, experiences, and ideas to present the most accurate, relevant, and timely information to you – our readers.

We invite you to tell us who you are, share your stories and talk about your experiences. Join the Instron Community.

Q. Our testing lab is moving to a new building. Do our testing systems require recalibration after the move?

We strongly recommended that you recalibrate your systems after a move. In fact, many ASTM and ISO testing standards such as ASTM E4 and ISO 7500-1, have a mandatory requirement for recalibration.

If you have questions about this or you would like assistance with moving and recalibration of your system, please contact your local Instron service office. Additionally, we recommend taking into account other appropriate services at this time including preventive maintenance, system set up, and training. If you would like assistance with moving and recalibration of your system or if you have questions, please contact your local Instron service office.
