Theodolite Calibration

Theodolite Calibration Services

Theodolites are instruments designed to measure both horizontal and vertical angles with precision. Primarily used for surveying and in other large scale applications, they typically feature a telescope mounted between two perpendicular arms on a rotating axis which allows for extremely precise measurement, usually in terms of arcseconds. Optical tooling equipment like theodolites are necessary for surveyors to provide precise angle calculations.

With surveying teams relying on these devices to create foundations, roadways, and other large scale engineering projects, it’s important to have this equipment calibrated on a regular basis to ensure quality in projects and even safety. Cross offers NIST-traceable calibration services for the following devices among others:

  • Optical and electronic theodolites
  • Autolevels
  • Basic and jig transits

Our theodolite calibration procedure is designed to work with your operational process, providing high-quality calibration with quick turnaround times using conveniently located nearby calibration labs or onsite technicians.

Equipment Calibration for Theodolites

How do I know if my optical tooling equipment needs to be calibrated?

The frustrating thing is: you don’t! You can’t tell by looking at it if it’s out of calibration or not. The circumstances when you should look into calibration include when your equipment is:

  • Bumped or dropped
  • Damaged
  • Not used for a long period of time
  • Used very heavily

Because it may not be obvious that your total station or autolevel isn’t measuring correctly, it’s important to have it calibrated regularly. In the event of a disagreement over a measurement, a certificate of calibration can attest to the accuracy of your equipment.

If you’re working frequently with angle measurement equipment, they need to be regularly calibrated to ensure maintained accuracy. At Cross Precision Measurement, we’ve provided theodolite calibration for countless operations in the research, industrial, and manufacturing worlds. And we can provide that same world-class service for you, too. Contact Cross Precision Measurement today to discuss your calibration needs.
