MGCplus SwiftCal - Calibration software for MGCplus

Key Feature(s)

HBM offers a calibration service through its accredited DKD (German Calibration Office) laboratory for force, torque, pressure and voltage ratio. This enables HBM to provide an all-around package of calibration services from working standard through to DKD calibrations for MGCplus amplifiers.

During calibration the equipment is checked to ensure it complies with specifications and a calibration certificate is automatically generated on completion and stored in a database. The certificate includes an OK-not OK statement of the specification checks. The certificate lists all measured values individually and all identifiable amplifiers identified by their serial numbers. The calibration certificate is available in English and German. Other calibration devices can be integrated with the MGCplus SwiftCal. Predefined calibration values can be entered for manually operated devices and the software checks whether the correct value has been set.

To further simplify the process, the software automatically recognises the amplifier connected to the calibration device. This means that, even if a MGCplus system has 16 amplifiers, there is no need to check that the calibration device is connected to the correct amplifier before calibration since the cables can be connected to any other amplifier and still give correct results

Because MGCplus SwiftCal is so quick it can be used to provide check-ups on measuring equipment immediately before and after particularly complex measurements. When using MGCplus SwiftCal, the calibration happens automatically through controllable calibration devices, such as HBMs K800 calibration device for strain gage quarter bridges.

Calibrating measuring equipment is standard in industry to ensure quality control and provide checks that the measuring equipment is operating properly. MGCplus SwiftCal ensures complete traceability that complies with industrial requirements. MGCplus SwiftCal is intuitive and easy to use as the software is written in English and uses a predefined sequence for calibrating that simplifies the process. The software does not demand any special training making the calibration process very quick and easy.

HBMs software MGCplus SwiftCal automatically calibrates MGCplus amplifiers ensuring consistent delivery of the highly accurate measurements needed in industrial testing environments. High accuracy is particularly important for safety-related tests common in the aerospace and automotive industries.
