PQI Calibration Services

PQI offers gage calibration services for hard gages and precision hand tools. With over 50 employees whose sole job is to provide technical support to our customers, we are able to deliver the full range of services including gage calibration services needed to be successful in all your dimensional measurement activities.

PQI is proud to be an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited calibration service provider. Our state-of-the-art calibration laboratory in Plymouth, MN holds a ±.3°F temperature span that can support XXX tolerance gage calibration for size and form. We have standards that are directly traceable to NIST and a Leitz Infinity PMM coordinate measuring machine with accredited uncertainty to .00001 to handle your most difficult applications. We work diligently to design a calibration program that meets your needs and requirements. Let us show you what we can do for you and how we will make calibration an easier task.

PQI is a Factory Authorized Repair and Calibration center for Hexagon Tesa MicroHite. Our accredited calibration services include linear error correction.

It’s not what’s on the front of the sticker, it’s what's behind it.

This sticker costs 32 cents to make, but the data behind it is priceless. Our people, procedures, equipment and facilities are second to none. And that is why we would like to be your choice for all your calibration needs:

  • Calibration data ensures the validity of measurement results.
  • Failed measurement results have consequences large and small.
  • Hubble Telescope mirror distortion: A $950 million dollar measurement error.
  • Failed measurement of heart pacemaker seals: 7 Deaths, $30 million dollar settlement: Don’t trust the sticker: Trust what’s behind it, let us show you the PQI difference.
