Test & measurement


infrastructure. Test equipment solutions need to be diverse, catering to a range of settings, from large metropolitan hospitals to remote communities in Alaska.


Q. What measures does your company take to ensure the precision and dependability of test equipment calibration and servicing, particularly in environments where accuracy is critical for patient safety? A test equipment manufacturer must have calibration to standards such as ISO 17025 for calibration laboratories, and at the very least ensure reference standards and calibrated equipment are traceable to national or international standards. This ensures the accuracy and traceability of measurements and minimises uncertainties in calibration processes. Our service and calibration arm, Calibrationhouse, has [United Kingdom Accreditation Service] (IEC 17025) capabilities for biomedical test equipment and counts worldwide medical device manufacturers and healthcare organisations among its customers.


Q. How are you assisting HTM officials in utilising and maintaining test equipment through training and educational programs? We assist biomedical engineers by providing comprehensive training and education initiatives. These include online webinars, onsite training sessions, and video tutorials covering equipment operation, troubleshooting, and preventive maintenance. Rigel also offers certification programs, continuing education courses, and technical support to address topics, regulatory compliance, and any issues biomeds encounter. We strongly believe in cultivating the next generation of biomeds. We have donated test equipment to colleges as this greatly benefits students by providing enhanced access to new learning experiences and preparing them for future careers in the field. Through hands-on experience with equipment, students develop crucial technical skills in equipment operation and maintenance. Additionally, networking opportunities with HTM professionals may arise, helping students’ educational experiences.
