Plug and ring gauges, micrometers, verniers, bore gauges, dial indicators, CMMs and test instruments must be calibrated on frequency, recalled the moment they fall due, and certified with traceability. Fast Maintenance Software keeps the gauge register, calculates the next-due date from the calibration frequency, recalls gauges due for calibration, and stores each calibration certificate on the instrument. Cloud or on-premise, for manufacturers of every kind, across India and worldwide.
A single register in Excel means due dates are recalculated by hand, recalls are remembered late, and a gauge quietly drifts past its date while it is still measuring parts on the line.
When an auditor asks for the calibration certificate of the gauge that measured a shipped part, someone digs through a folder — and if it isn't found, the whole lot is in question.
With no status control, a gauge found out of tolerance — or already past its date — can be picked up and used again, silently passing bad parts until a customer complaint traces it back.
Its calibration record, R&R study and past certificates are scattered, so nobody can see an instrument's full story or spot the one that keeps coming back out of tolerance.
Every gauge follows the same controlled path from its frequency to its certificate, so calibration runs on a schedule the system enforces — not on someone remembering to check the file.
Fast Maintenance Software gives quality and calibration teams the control they keep trying to build with a spreadsheet and a certificate file — with due dates calculated and status enforced for them.
The gauge master — the calibration equivalent of the asset register — holds each instrument with its gauge/instrument code, description, gauge/instrument type, make, measuring range, least count, department and location. Gauges are grouped by type, a barcode or QR gauge-ID label lets an inspector scan an instrument to open its card, and the whole register imports and exports via Excel. One searchable register replaces the spreadsheet and the board on the quality-room wall.
Each gauge has a calibration frequency and a last-calibration date, from which the software calculates the next-due date. A due-date-wise recall list shows what is due this week, what is approaching and what is overdue, and WhatsApp, email and SMS alerts fire ahead of the date. The quality team recalls each gauge from the floor and assigns it to the in-house lab or an external NABL lab — before it can drift out of tolerance on live parts.
When a gauge is calibrated, its calibration certificate is recorded against that instrument — calibration date, observed error against tolerance, verdict, and traceability to the master standard used. Historic certificates stay on the gauge, building a full calibration history you can produce in seconds for an ISO 9001 or IATF 16949 audit. No more digging through a lever-arch file to prove the instrument that measured a shipped part was in calibration when it did.
Every gauge carries a status — calibrated, due, overdue, under calibration or rejected — and the register enforces it. An overdue instrument is flagged and pulled from use; one found out of tolerance at recalibration is marked rejected and quarantined, with the reason on its history. Gauge R&R and MSA context sits on the same card, so an instrument's measurement-system suitability lives next to its calibration status — the evidence an IATF auditor or a customer part-approval asks for.
A status board shows the whole gauge register — calibrated, due, overdue, rejected — and the dashboards track calibration compliance, upcoming recalls and out-of-tolerance rates. On top of that, Dhruv AI gives quality managers a role dashboard over live data, a natural-language chat that turns a plain-English question into a query — validated through a read-only sandbox — and clustering that groups calibration remarks into themes, so a recurring out-of-tolerance pattern on one gauge type surfaces on its own.
Every instrument with code, description, type, make, range, least count, department and location — grouped by type, with barcode/QR gauge-ID labels and Excel import/export.
Calibration frequency per gauge, next-due date calculated from the last-calibration date, a due-date-wise recall list, and recall alerts before the date.
Calibration certificate against each gauge with result, tolerance and traceability, a full certificate history, and a live status board of the whole register.
Dispatch a gauge to an external NABL lab for calibration and receive it back on the ledger, with turnaround tracked and the returned certificate attached.
Mark a gauge found out of tolerance as rejected, quarantine it from inspection, keep the reason, and hold Gauge R&R / MSA context on the instrument.
Barcode/QR gauge-ID labels to scan an instrument to its card, and recall alerts on WhatsApp, email and SMS — plus a Dhruv AI calibration dashboard.
Yes. The gauge master holds every instrument with code, description, type, make, range, least count, department and location — grouped by type, searchable, and import/export via Excel.
Each gauge's calibration frequency and last-calibration date drive an automatic next-due date, a due-date-wise recall list, and alerts before the date so gauges are recalled on time.
Yes. Each certificate is recorded against the instrument with result, tolerance and traceability to the master standard, and the full history is retrievable in seconds for an audit.
The register captures Gauge R&R and MSA context against each instrument — study status, result and linked record — alongside its calibration status. It is the register and evidence layer, not a statistical calculator.
Yes. Every gauge carries a status — calibrated, due, overdue, under calibration or rejected — and an overdue or out-of-tolerance instrument is flagged and quarantined from inspection.
