Industrial Weighing Balance Calibration Expert
Summary
Freelancer Client is hiring: Industrial Weighing Balance Calibration Expert.
Location: Remote
I need an experienced technician who can step into my plant in Chennai and keep our weighing balances in perfect calibration while resolving any electrical or mechanical hiccups that appear along the way from 20-May-2026 to 21-May-2026. The job centers on industrial-grade balances used in an aluminium foundry environment, so you should be comfortable working around heat, dust, and production deadlines.
What you'll do:
• You will begin by checking each unit against certified test weights, tracing deviations, and adjusting until readings fall within spec. If a balance drifts or fails, I expect you to diagnose both the electrical side—boards, sensors, wiring—and the mechanical side—load cells, bearings, linkages—using your own multimeter, screwdrivers, spanners, and nose-pliers. A solid understanding of vacuum lines, hoses, fittings, and leak detection is valuable because several balances are integrated with sealed systems that can skew results if they leak.
• Extra knowledge that helps
• Foundry or aluminium plant experience means you already know the safety culture and equipment constraints.
• Familiarity with calibration software or the ability to run manufacturer utilities from a laptop will streamline the process and shorten downtime.
• If you have previously serviced other industrial instruments, mention it; we sometimes rope in extra tasks when production shuts down.
• Deliverables I expect
• 1. Calibration certificate for each balance showing before/after readings and the test weight traceability.
• 2. A brief service log outlining any parts replaced, sensor adjustments, or wiring repairs.
Skills: Engineering, Troubleshooting, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Technical Support, Industrial Engineering, Technical Documentation
Budget: $100–$400 USD

3. Recommendations for follow-up maintenance or spares if you spot emerging issues.
I’ll give you full access to the equipment, manuals, and test weights. Let me know your availability and relevant project history so we can lock in a maintenance window that fits our production schedule.
