Serving Miamisburg, OH
Miamisburg sits on the Great Miami River in southern Montgomery County, ten miles south of Dayton, where Interstate 75 meets State Routes 725 and 741. The Mound Laboratory, built in 1948 out of the wartime Dayton Project, spent four decades making detonators, timers, firing sets, and plutonium-238 heat sources that powered deep-space missions.
The site is now Mound Business Park, surrounded by Yaskawa America's Motoman robotics operation, Avery Dennison, Verso, Dayton Superior, the Isotec stable-isotope plant, and Kettering Health Miamisburg. Tra-Cal serves them with ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 calibration through prepaid ship-in service or onsite calibration appointments, documented with NIST-traceable certificates.

How Tra-Cal Serves Miamisburg, OH
In-Lab Calibration:
Send your equipment to our ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 laboratory with prepaid inbound and return shipping. Calibration is performed in a climate-controlled environment against documented procedures, with traceability through NIST. Standard turnaround is approximately five business days from receipt, and asset records are retained with automated due-date notifications.
Onsite Calibration:
Our metrologists travel to Miamisburg-area facilities for fixed assets, large inventories, and instruments that should not be moved. Our mobile laboratories carry more than 100 instruments per van, and calibration is performed in a controlled environment at your site on a scheduled appointment, with the same accreditation, NIST traceability, and documentation as in-lab service.
Frequently Asked Questions

The same ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation, NIST-traceable standards, and certificate format apply regardless of intake method.
-
