Calibration - Clause 7.6 of ISO 9001:2000 - Is all this necessary?

Hey folks,
Beautiful day in southern Virginia!
Can you interpret 7.6 as "preventive maintenance" too??
Thanks,

A calibration program, if run effectively, is a 'super' pm program, for special types of (measuring) equipment - that which requires traceability!

So, yes, it can be part of your pm program or vice versa...

Traceability and special machines! Gotcha
Thanks Andy.:)

A certain large local (car) manufacturer, I am familiar with, had a software based PM management system which also had calibration functionality. Since they also did predictive maintenance, which is the essence of a good cal. management system, it seemed like the perfect solution to me (well, pretty good, if not 'perfect');)
