Ensure quality with proper autoclave calibration
Autoclave calibration (or validation) is important when determining the functionality of autoclaves in various settings. Autoclaves use both temperature (heat) along with pressure and sometimes steam to process materials. Large scale vessels are commonly used to process materials such as composites which improve the strength and durability of finished products.

When it comes to precision temperature instruments like autoclaves, validation and calibration is necessary to ensure quality. The autoclave calibration procedure can be performed using a range of different devices, but the most important thing is that it be accurate to NIST traceable standards, particularly for AS9100 in the aerospace industry.
At Cross Precision Measurement, we provide calibration services with an autoclave calibration certificate (including as found/as left data) for audit purposes. Cross can also perform temperature mapping on your autoclaves to ensure a consistent reading in all parts of the chamber.

Rupture Discs for Launch Systems
Do the tanks in your fuel line launch system require rupture disks for safety pressure release? Continental Disc offers a line of discs with stainless steel construction able to withstand liquid nitrogen at minus 320F with a burst pressure of 220 psi
Case Study: Geven Improves Efficiency with a Kreon Measuring Arm and 3D Scanner
This case study from Kreon highlights how Geven, an airline seat manufacturer in Italy, uses an Ace measuring arm with a Skyline Wide 3D scanner for a range of applications in their quality process. These include; control of tools for plastic and composite parts, inspection of the first injected plastic parts (verification of deformations, hole positions), control of the metal structure of the seats, assembly checks (docking with neighboring parts), and reverse engineering of parts without CAD.
“One year after the acquisition of the Kreon measuring arm, we can say that we are satisfied with the system and the technical support in terms of availability, response time and competence.” Learn more and contact a precision measurement specialist from Cross Company to see how a Kreon solution can improve efficiency in your operation. Cross Company is an authorized Kreon distributor in the U.S.

Cross Provides Tangible Value for You
Reduce Risk
If you’re using environmental chambers or industrial ovens in your process, they will need to be calibrated regularly. In addition, it may be necessary to perform a complete temperature mapping exercise of the chamber.
Cross Precision Measurement provides both services under our ISO 17025 scope of accreditation. Our environmental chamber and industrial oven calibration and mapping procedures are designed to be as accurate and efficient as possible. Reduce the risk of improperly testing or curing your product with oven and environmental chamber calibration.
Improve Efficiency
Finding human labor for repetitive tasks like machine tending can be a challenge. In this difficult labor market, you’d certainly rather use those resources for higher value tasks. A great solution is robotic machine tending.
You can significantly improve your efficiency by automating manual tasks like machine tending with a cobot. These applications typically have a relatively quick return on investment and are a great way to start automating your process.
Raise Quality
The Kreon Onyx is a high performance measuring arm that offers an unprecedented level of accuracy with 3D measuring of parts and tools. With the ability to measure by probing or with a 3D scanner, the Onyx is equally suitable for use in a measuring lab or workshop.
This measuring arm is perfect for all sorts of applications such as quality control or reverse engineering, and is perfect for the large parts used in the aerospace industry.
