Rekalibrácia

R e kalibrácia is a Slovak term that translates to recalibration in English. It refers to the process of adjusting a measuring instrument or device to ensure its accuracy and reliability. This is often done by comparing the instrument's readings to a known standard or reference value. If discrepancies are found, the instrument is adjusted until it provides accurate measurements within acceptable tolerances.

The need for recalibration arises due to various factors, including normal wear and tear, environmental changes, or after a repair. Regular recalibration is crucial in many fields, such as manufacturing, healthcare, and scientific research, where precise measurements are essential for quality control, patient safety, and experimental validity.

The process typically involves a qualified technician who follows established procedures. This may include checks of the instrument's functionality, calibration against traceable standards, and documentation of the results. Upon successful recalibration, a certificate or sticker is often issued to indicate that the instrument has been verified and is performing within specifications. Failure to recalibrate can lead to inaccurate data, faulty products, or incorrect diagnoses.
