Calibration of Rail Equipment
A Familiar Face Since 1985
CoMech Metrology has been a familiar face in the rail industry for over 35 years. We are proud to provide calibration and measurement to some of the major brands that span over the UK rail network.
We help the British rail network keep moving by providing rail gauge design, asset management and of course, our well-known calibration service. Although our roots are in the rail industry, other engineering industries are benefitting from our services.
Our laboratories are UKAS accredited and are well-equipped for torque, pressure, mechanical, electrical and MiniProf calibrations, repairs and maintenance.
Taking Care of the UK’s Rail Equipment
Our reputation for precise measurement of metrology equipment means that we count the majority of the UK rail operators as our valued clients. We provide calibrations on torque wrenches, multimeters, gauges, crimp tools and more. All our calibrations are performed in our UK-accredited laboratories, so you can rest assured you’re getting precision when you need it the most.
