Testimonials
"I am pleased to recommend Tangent Labs LLC to anyone in need of a highly professional and competent ISO-17025 registered firm. We have found Tangent to be a valuable partner and resource in our ongoing requirement to operate a QMS with reliable measurement data.
We have found their people to be highly competent and personable, their help- with metrology issues always available, and their pricing reasonable for the value provided.
After calibration activity is concluded, the QMS relies on the reports of that activity. Tangent Labs excels in this matter.; Their color reports are clear, accurate, and a joy to read for anyone concerned with measurement uncertainty and IM&TE status. This ISO-17025 certified lab also adds value-added service by making those reports accessible to us on their website in a secure manner. It is a very nice feeling to have this “back-up status” when we undergo our annual ISO/TS 16949 audit.
In the event we are in need of equipment, we know we can rely on Tangent for help in selecting the right equipment for the right measurement to assure quality.
I strongly recommend Tangent Labs LLC to anyone in search of a customer-oriented, internationally certified, calibration services firm."

Leverage Wireless Scanner Technology and Improve Efficiency
Do you capture material weight during your manufacturing process? Do you use barcodes? Have you considered the benefits you would gain by streamlining these processes into a single production step? Have you considered integrating your scale system and your barcode scanner?
We have noticed that many of our clients weigh materials at one point in the manufacturing process only to scan the material barcode later to capture additional information. Capturing material data is essential, but you should minimize anything that slows down - or stops - a manufacturing process.
If you are still using a corded barcode scanner, now would be a good time to also consider the benefits of using a wireless device. With the variety of wireless devices available today, you will recognize the power of efficient data collection without worrying about expensive cord repairs and the down time associated with them.
Tangent Labs can help you streamline your manufacturing process by integrating a wireless barcode scanner to your scale system at a single location. We can help you integrate a wireless scanner to your scale system into a streamlined manufacturing process. The data captured by the scale and the scanner will update your computer database simultaneously thereby making your overall process more efficient.
Now that we've got you thinking, let our experienced specialists assess your scale and barcode needs and identify the most efficient choices for you.

Tangent Labs Gets a Facelift
Happy Holidays
Looking For Something New...
Go Online!
We just had a client get caught in the middle of an audit missing their calibration certificates. Unfortunately, they had no choice but to incur the cost to have their certs reprinted. Had they enrolled in our online calibration management database, they could have accessed those records at their convenience and done so free of charge. It free to get set up online and easy to use. Give us a call to take it for a test drive.
Rentals Anyone?
Do you need a scale for end of the year inventory or did yours break and you don't have a spare? Call us to rent one of our scales. We have balances and small counting scales all the way up to 4x4 floor scales.
