IATF / ISO 17025 Calibration

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?

  • I am going to attach this documentation from Hexagon. It appears their B89 and ISO 10360 are non-accredited unless they do a before and afters. Unless I am reading this wrong.




    For IATF, you must have "As Found" and "As Left" results on the reports. Somewhere in Section 7 of the IATF guidelines there are like 8-9 bullet points of things that must be on a cert report. So you should be getting the accredited version of the B89.
