On the 5560A, 5550A, and 5540A Multi-Product Calibrators, the output terminals light up to guide users through the connections needed for the specific calibration you want to complete. The lights will turn on to indicate which output terminals are active based on the menu items selected to work on.
Click the calibration type buttons to see Visual Management™️ in action. This virtual demo shows how the terminals light up for different calibration types.

Manufacturing processes require hundreds of incredibly precise devices to keep operations running smoothly, and reliably. To keep these devices running ceaselessly and to specifications, they must be regularly inspected, repaired, and calibrated. Whether the timing, flow, temperature, or pressure requires calibration, these instruments are usually sent out to a calibration lab, or a calibration engineer is brought into the plant.
To keep your plant up and running as much as possible, here are...

The newest multi-product calibrators from Fluke Calibration, the 5560A, 5550A, and 5540A Multi-Product Calibrators make it easy to calibrate a wide range of different tools. However, the top 5 most often run calibration tests are:
Calibrating AC current
Calibrating DC voltage
Calibrating resistance
Calibrating using a thermocouple connector
Calibrating a clamp meter
Multimeter calibration
The multimeter calibrator process is one of the most common ways to use a multi-product calibrator;...

MET/CAL™ Calibration Management Software is built to automate the calibration of a wide range of electrical test equipment. The software walks you through the process you need to take to run a test and takes you step-by-step through the procedure. You can also use MET/CAL to guide you through a manual test. This video demonstrates what MET/CAL can do using a 5520A High Performance Multi-Product Calibrator to manually calibrate a Fluke 117 Electrician's Multimeter.

With calibration management software
One of almost every laboratory’s performance metrics is tracking calibration throughput–how many assets can each individual calibrate throughout the day. The more assets properly calibrated during the workday, the more work a calibration lab can take on without needing to hire more individuals. By adding automation to your calibration laboratory with software, you’ll be able to see a notable increase in calibration throughput–up to 200%.
Adding automation...

As we celebrate World Metrology Day this year, the impact of quality measurements in healthcare is even more transparent. After more than a year of global pandemic actions, we can see how much our industry has been involved in the medical device manufacturing process as well as vaccine production and transportation.
Fluke Chief Corporate Metrologist Jeff Gust explains why measurements matter, and continue to matter, every step of our journey in the fight against COVID-19.

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...
