All you programmers who work in Automotive and/or are IATF certified, do you have Hexagon calibrate your CMMs to ISO 17025?
At last year's audit, we were dinged for not having the ANAB label on our CMM certs. In the past we just did the B89 or ISO 10360 (vision). Per the IATF standard 7.1.5.3.2 the certificate of calibration or test report shall include the mark of a national accreditation body. Hexagon only does this with an ISO 17025 calibration. Hexagon won't add the ANAB onto the certs unless they do an ISO 17025 calibration, even though they are ANAB certified.
This year we are adding this to our MyCare package and now Hexagon wants to charge an additional $2K for each CMM calibration.
How many of you ran into this or currently do this?
ISO 17025 references ASME B89 as the standard used for CMM calibration. I was always under the impression that a B89 was ISO 17025 accredited. 3 years of calibrations under IATF and we never had that issue.
