Engineers and technicians across industries require precise and reliable measurement tools to ensure the pressure readings from their instruments are accurate. One of the most popular tools for high accuracy pressure calibration is the piston gauge. They are useful when measuring the pressure of gases and liquids in a closed system. They can be used to calibrate pressure sensors, pressure transducers, and a wide variety of other pressure-measuring instruments.
What is a piston gauge?

Nitinol is a metal alloy of nickel and titanium with unique properties, including superelasticity and shape memory. It can be folded up in order to be inserted into the body, then return to its original cast shape and size when in place.
Fluke salt baths help ensure consistent and repeatable processes for medical device manufacturing and Nitinol forming by providing stability and uniformity specifications that are up to 10x that of a typical heat-treating bath.
Precise heating and quenching...
