SANTA CLARA, Calif., 24 Aug. 2011. Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE:A) and Lockheed Martin officials in the U.S. are teaming to offer a new service: calibration of test and measurement equipment. Agilent and Lockheed Martin now provide on-site services covering a full range of test and measurement equipment, from torque wrenches to spectrum analyzers. Agilent and Lockheed Martin personnel can calibrate instruments from nearly all manufacturers, either while on site or returning the instruments in less than 24 hours, according to a spokesperson.
“What we and our customers really appreciate is how closely Lockheed Martin’s calibration philosophy and quality align with Agilent,” says Steve Aleshire, vice president and general manager of Agilent's Americas Service Operation.
Lockheed Martin Metrology Services supports the production of defense-oriented and commercial products that are required to function with a high degree of accuracy.
