MET/CAL® Calibration Management Software delivers automated calibration that is both easy and powerful

Users report that MET/CAL software is four to eight times faster than manual calibration and provides consistent, fast calibration across your entire workload. More calibration facilities have automated with MET/CAL software than all other products combined.
MET/CAL software is a powerful, flexible, full-featured automated calibration environment for PCs running the Microsoft Windows operating system. It generates and writes test results to the database managed by MET/TRACK software and enables you to:
<ul>
 	<li>Create and edit calibration procedures using a wide range of standards.</li>
 	<li>Run the procedures.</li>
 	<li>Collect test data during the calibration process.</li>
 	<li>Generate calibration reports and certificates.</li>
 	<li>Make data available to other software applications such as Microsoft Word and Excel.</li>
</ul>
With MET/CAL, it is easy to perform calibrations faster and with more repeatable results, and to collect and report a wealth of information.

<strong>Use our extensive procedure library or write your own with the new Procedure Editor</strong>

MET/CAL software comes with sample procedures that can be used as is or can be modified to meet your specific requirements. These procedures are also valuable as examples to guide you through creating your own. By subscribing to the MET/SUPPORT Gold software support program, you can have continuous access to a wide range of warranted procedures at no additional cost.

You can also write or edit your own procedures. MET/CAL <em>Plus </em>8 features a new Procedure Editor, based on the MS Visual Studio integrated development environment. The new Editor’s modern, flexible user interface makes it a powerful development tool. A linked online help system provides examples to help you along. Users can edit multiple procedures at once, enhancing productivity, thanks to improved layout of windows. Debugging is easier, too. Built-in editor functions include undo, redo, tool-tip help, intellisense, and syntax highlighting.

<strong>Manage metrology assets the easy way with MET/TRACK® software</strong>

MET/TRACK is the powerful test and measurement database management system that manages inventory, calibration, location, maintenance, and customers for MET/CAL Plus software. MET/TRACK software delivers flexibility, power, and security that is not available in generic database applications. And it supports the traceability and record-keeping requirements of quality and accreditation standards, including ISO/IEC 17025, ISO 9000, QS 9000, EN 45000, ANSI Z540.3, and MIL STD 45662A – without requiring you to write your own programs, setup your own databases, or test and document the system.
