Beamex Focuses on Making the Work of a Field Calibration Technician Easier and More Efficient
PIETARSAARI, Finland, February 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Beamex focuses on making the work of a field calibration technician easier and more
efficient by launching a global "Ready for the field?" campaign. The campaign focuses on
the challenging work of a field calibration technician and how the right gear can make
that work much easier and also more efficient.
Being a field calibration technician in the processing industry is a tough job: you
are under constant pressure to be more effective, you need to have many skills and carry
multiple devices, environmental conditions can be challenging and constantly changing, and
documentation of data takes time and is difficult in the field. Having the right gear
makes the work much easier and also more efficient. Raimo Ahola, CEO of Beamex Group
explains, "Out of more than 2,000 people who have responded to our studies on challenges
in current calibration processes, every other person says he or she would like to carry
less equipment in the field. According to the responses, this is by far the biggest
challenge. Secondly, more than a third of the respondents state that documentation takes
too much time and almost as many people stated that errors relating to documentation of
data are too common".
Jan-Henrik Svensson, VP Marketing & Sales of Beamex Group describes, "Since there are
a lot of things for a calibration technician to do, you need to be more effective all the
time. Equipment with automated and guided procedures is one solution to this challenge.
Furthermore, several individual applications may be possible to perform with just one
multifunctional measurement device, which means that less equipment needs to be purchased,
maintained and, ultimately, carried in the field. Often a technician needs to use many
different tools; therefore the ease-of-use is important. If the environment is, for
instance, dirty, wet, dusty or even potentially explosive, you have to consider the
required classification for the equipment. Documenting the calibration work done in the
field may take a lot of effort and can be prone to error if done manually. Using field
equipment together with software significantly improves the efficiency of documentation
work and the quality of data. In conclusion, many of the challenges field calibration
technicians have can be overcome by carefully planning what kind of gear and equipment a
technician should have."
The microsite beamex.com/readyforthefield explores the challenges related to the work
of a field calibration technician and how the right gear and equipment make the work much
easier and also more efficient.
