Caltech provides linear and dimensional calibration services for suitable precision-measuring instruments in Sharjah and Dubai. Accurate dimensional measurements are important for manufacturing, engineering, construction, inspection and quality-control activities.
Measuring tools can gradually lose accuracy because of regular use, wear, physical damage, temperature changes or unsuitable storage. Calibration helps determine whether an instrument continues to measure within its required tolerance.

- Straight edges
Send the instrument manufacturer, model, measurement range, resolution and quantity to confirm capability.
Why Is Dimensional Calibration Important?
Maintain Measurement Accuracy
Calibration compares a measuring instrument against an appropriate reference standard to identify measurement errors.
Support Product Quality
Accurate dimensional measurements help ensure that manufactured parts meet the required size, fit and tolerance.
Identify Worn or Damaged Instruments
Regular use, impact, contamination and poor storage can affect measuring surfaces and instrument alignment.
Reduce Rework and Rejected Products
Inaccurate measuring equipment can result in incorrect inspections, unsuitable components and unnecessary production costs.
Support Quality Requirements
Calibration documentation can support internal quality procedures, customer expectations and applicable audits.
Our Dimensional Calibration Process
- Record the instrument manufacturer, model and serial number.
- Inspect the measuring surfaces and general condition.
- Clean the instrument where appropriate.
- Identify the required range and calibration points.
- Compare readings against suitable reference standards.
- Record measurement results and deviations.
- Report instruments outside the required tolerance.
- Provide applicable calibration documentation.
Adjustment or repair availability should be confirmed separately.
On-Site and Off-Site Calibration
Portable dimensional instruments are normally suitable for off-site calibration under controlled conditions.
On-site calibration may be available for suitable fixed equipment or larger quantities. Availability depends on the instrument type, required accuracy, quantity and site conditions.
