FAQ



- Typical industry practice is every 12 months (annual calibration) for traceability in dimensional measurements. Some users extend to 24 months if stability is demonstrated by periodic interim checks, but 12 months is the common default for interferometer laser heads and systems.



- Any of the following are indicators:
- The calibration due date (per label or quality system) has been reached or exceeded.
- Periodic verification against a traceable length standard or artifact shows drift or out‑of‑tolerance results.
- The system’s measurement uncertainty has increased or fails your acceptance tests.
- The laser head does not achieve or maintain frequency lock/stability as indicated by its status/lock indicators or by the measurement display.
- Environmental compensation is correct but measured lengths no longer agree with known references.
- After any significant repair, after a hard shock/transport event, or following extended storage.
