Customized After-Hours Pressure Calibration Minimizes Downtime for High-Volume Gas Regulator Manufacturer
An industrial manufacturer specializing in gas manifolds and pressure regulators required pressure calibration services that could meet high-volume production demands, specific metric standards, and custom fixture requirements.
The Challenge
1
High-volume output with minimal opportunity
2
Required customized test fixtures for non-standard metric setups
3
Limited testing window during non-production hours
4
Needed full disconnect/reconnect of system for calibration access
The Opportunity
ICS proposed a custom approach to deliver calibration without disrupting production. Key objectives were to:
Minimize production interruptions
Develop or source required custom fixtures
Work after business hours
Ensure metric calibration compliance
Improve product quality via precise measurements
The Solution
ICS implemented onsite pressure calibration services after-hours. The team:
1
Sourced specialized parts and fixtures
2
In-depth testing of client equipment
3
Ensured accuracy across all equipment
4
Performed the entire process within the client's operational constraints
Benefits
Reduced operational downtime
Improved calibration accuracy
Met unique production and scheduling requirements
Demonstrated ICS’s flexibility and problem-solving approach
Results
Enhanced product quality through precise pressure calibration
Saved significant costs by avoiding production delays
Demonstrated the value of custom solutions and adaptability
