Anti-icing

Anti-icing   is  the application of chemicals that not only de-ice but also remain on a surface and continue to delay the reformation of ice for a certain period of time, or prevent adhesion of ice to make mechanical removal easier. Snow, frost, ice cause drag and affect aircraft performance. <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script> <ins class="adsbygoogle"      style="display:block; text-align:center;"      data-ad-layout="in-article"      data-ad-format="fluid"      data-ad-client="ca-pub-3594006331358944"      data-ad-slot="7745808678"></ins> <script>      (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script>

calibration

calibration services, including Tool Calibration and Gauge Calibration Services, are performed to evaluate and adjust instruments in order to maintain accurate measurement. During dimensional calibration, also known as mechanical calibration, measurements taken with the instrument are compared to those of a standard with measurement traceability to a national authority such as NIST. <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script> <ins class="adsbygoogle"      style="display:block; text-align:center;"      data-ad-layout="in-article"      data-ad-format="fluid"      data-ad-client="ca-pub-3594006331358944"      data-ad-slot="7745808678"></ins> <script>      (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script>
