From Beamex, Inc.

Calibration is of great importance, especially from the
viewpoint of production safety and quality of the final
product. The Nokian Tyres factory has approximately 2,500
devices to calibrate, 1,400 of which are calibrated every
year. Calibration itself may also be done in demanding
conditions - often it is necessary to creep, crawl or stretch
to reach the equipment that needs to be calibrated. This
requires that the calibration devices be durable, easy to
use, and precise.
