In-Lab & Onsite Calibration Services in Horsham, PA
With over 35 years of experience, our technicians have provided precise calibration, instrument repair, and metrology database management to a diverse range of industries across the Horsham area.
Located in Gaithersburg, MD, our calibration laboratory—accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017, ANSI Z540-1, and Z540.3 standards—adheres to strict quality protocols. We perform all calibrations and repairs in line with manufacturer specifications to ensure your measurement tools remain reliable, repeatable, and audit-ready. Each calibration is accompanied by a certificate that confirms compliance with the rigorous standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Horsham sits in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, just north of Philadelphia, and is one of the region’s densest concentrations of business and industrial parks. Its employer base includes color and specialty-chemical manufacturers, pharmaceutical and contract manufacturers, electronics and precision-manufacturing firms, and defense and technology tenants tied to the former Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Willow Grove, now redeveloped around the Horsham Air Guard Station. Tra-Cal supports these teams from its Gaithersburg, MD lab with ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017, NIST-traceable calibration across Horsham, Hatboro, Willow Grove, Ambler, and the surrounding Montgomery and Bucks County corridor.
Because Horsham falls within our Mid-Atlantic regional service area, we offer three intake paths: scheduled pickup and delivery of your instruments, prepaid ship-in with a typical five-business-day turnaround, and onsite calibration where our mobile labs come to your facility. Every calibration is NIST-traceable and ships with an audit-ready certificate.
