In-Lab & Onsite Calibration Services in Prineville, OR
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 Prineville 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).
Serving Prineville, OR
Prineville is the seat of Crook County, sitting on the Crooked River at the mouth of Ochoco Creek in Central Oregon’s high desert, where US-26 meets OR-126. For a city of about 10,700 it carries an unusually heavy industrial load: Meta built its very first data center here and Apple followed with its own campus, together representing billions of dollars of hyperscale infrastructure and making Meta the area’s largest employer. Alongside them sit Les Schwab’s Prineville production and distribution operations, the Endura Products plant on North Main Street, the Prineville Airport industrial area, and a Crook County workforce roughly a fifth of which works in manufacturing. Tra-Cal supports these operations with ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 calibration of test, measurement, and laboratory equipment.
Because Prineville sits well outside our Mid-Atlantic pickup radius, we serve Crook County and the wider Central Oregon area from our Gaithersburg, Maryland laboratory through two intake paths: prepaid ship-in calibration with a typical five-business-day turnaround, and onsite calibration appointments at your facility. Each calibration is performed against documented procedures, traced through NIST, and accompanied by an audit-ready certificate that supports AS9100, ISO 13485, ISO 9001, and FDA 21 CFR Part 820 quality systems.

Standard turnaround is approximately five business days from receipt, and asset records are retained with automated due-date notifications.
Onsite Calibration:

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.
