Symposium SIKA 2023

In May 2023, employees of the PIAP laboratory participated in a symposium entitled “Calibration Techniques,” organized by SIKA Dr. Siebert & Kühn GmbH & Co. KG. The symposium began with a presentation on Sika’s organization and known techniques for the correct calibration of thermometers and pressure gauges. During and after the presentation, participants asked questions to the event organizers and exchanged opinions on the presented topics and professional experiences. At the end of the event, interactive demonstrations were conducted with the latest Sika equipment for calibrating thermometers and pressure gauges. Employees of the PIAP laboratory had the opportunity to exchange experiences and share their knowledge with other participants of the event. Special thanks to Thomas Meth, Martin Opfermann, and Remigiusz Raducha, who, in addition to organizing the event, demonstrated great skills and professionalism during the presentation and discussion.

Workshops on conducting vibration tests

In April 2023, workshops on vibration tests were organized by the LBUP Industrial Equipment Testing Laboratory. The number of participants who wanted to broaden their knowledge and learn about the possibilities of our laboratory exceeded all expectations. At the event we presented ourselves to a group of over 30 participants! During the workshop, together with EC TEST Systems, we presented electrodynamic systems for carrying out vibration tests of objects as well as comprehensive control and measurement systems. The demonstrations were carried out on a Dongling Technologies system with a force of 30 kN. We would like to thank EC TEST Systems for cooperation and help in organizing the event.

New vibration test equipment at the LBUP laboratory

In September 2022, the LBUP Industrial Equipment Testing Laboratory received a 500×500 mm magnesium head expander which features 1800 Hz frequency range. This is a table field expander used for mounting objects undergoing vibration testing along vertical axis.

Successful audit at the accredited LPTW Laboratory (AP 196)

An external audit carried out by the Polish Centre for Accreditation took place at the LPTW Temperature and Humidity Measurements Laboratory in July 2022. The Laboratory was given a positive audit result, confirming our prominent level of competence.
