    This laboratory offers commercial dimensional testing service only.
    2
    Calibration and Measurement Capability Uncertainty (CMC) is the smallest uncertainty of measurement
    that a laboratory can achieve within its scope of accreditation when performing more or less routine
    calibrations of nearly ideal measurement standards of nearly ideal measuring equipment. CMC’s
    represent expanded uncertainties expressed at approximately the 95 % level of confidence, usually using
    a coverage factor of k = 2. The actual measurement uncertainty of a specific calibration performed by
    the laboratory may be greater than the CMC due to the behavior of the customer’s device and to influences
    from the circumstances of the specific calibration.
    3
    This test is not equivalent to that of a calibration.
    4
    This laboratory’s scope contains withdrawn or superseded methods. As a clarifier, this indicates that the
    applicable method itself has been withdrawn or is now considered “historical” and not that the laboratory’s
    accreditation for the method has been withdrawn.
    5
    This laboratory also uses customer supplied specifications and/or methods developed by the lab and
    approved by the client directly related to the types of tests within the parameters listed above.
