New Standards Manufacturing

Manufacturing of Standards by our Accredited Laboratory

Along with the certification services that Eastern Applied's Standards Laboratory provides; we have the capability to manufacture most standards required for thickness testing instruments and elemental analyzers. All new standards are traceable to N.I.S.T. in compliance with ISO/IEC 17025-2005; certifications provided.

From mylar foils (shims) for hand-held instruments to one-piece foils for bench-top units to multi-layer or alloy sets for an x-ray instrument; Eastern Applied's laboratory can help meet your needs. Please contact our Standards Laboratory to discuss any application that you are considering adding or with any questions.

New Standards Summary:

   * Standards can be manufactured for most thickness testers
   * Hazardous Substance standards for RoHS (WEEE, etc) testing available
   * Micro-foil or plated options are available
   * Fast turn-around time and cost-efficient pricing is standard
   * Certifications provided on all new standards
   * Available for all models of XRF, hand-held and bench-top units

Newest Available:
Gold Purity Standards: for obtaining the highest accuracy from any XRF Analyzer that performs Gold Karat Analysis.

Our Calibrations Standards Lab now offers yellow gold and white gold standards from 10-karat to 22-karat with all constituents listed

A Set of “NORMAL RANGE” standards consists of 6 PIECES; 1 BARE, 1 INFINITE and 4 COATED STANDARDS. The normal range allows accurate measurements for normalized (Xn) 0.28-0.30 up to 0.85-0.90. The extended range is for any measurements where the thickness standards consists of 5 PIECES; 1 BARE, 1 INFINITE and 3 COATED STANDARDS. no calibration standards will be provided for thickness beyond normalized (Xn) 0.96.
