Simco Electronics

SIMCO Electronics was formed in 1962 with a dedication to customer service, technical superiority, quality of work and fast service. Calibration and repair of precision measurement and test equipment is our primary business. SIMCO is owned by present and past employees and their families, resulting in a Company-wide commitment to providing the best available calibration and repair services at the best price value. SIMCO operates twenty-four hours a day, five days a week, maximizing our ability to respond to customers quickly. CUSTOMER service is enhanced through the use of SIMCO's integrated software package which uses a relational database for speed and ease of access to data. Using SIMCO's Dial-In Program, customers can access information on their account as well.

SIMCO's calibration and repair capabilities for measuring and test equipment include virtually all types of electronic, electrical, dimensional, mechanical, physical and radiation parameters. Equipment types serviced range from simple analog devices to state-of-the-art microprocessor-managed instruments. SIMCO processes over 300,000 instruments per year. Calibrations performed are traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and conform to the requirements of MIL-STD-45662A, ANSI/NCSL Z540-1, and ISO 9002. SIMCO has expanded in recent years to become the largest provider of commercial calibration service in the United States with locations coast to coast. A map, with addresses for each location, is available for viewing. SIMCO is headquartered in Sunnyvale, CA.

SIMCO has prospered in the Government arena as well. Since 1969, SIMCO has operated the calibration and repair laboratory for precision measurement equipment at NASA Ames Research Center (ARC) located at Moffett Field, California. SIMCO also provides dedicated personnel at ARC to support NASA wind tunnel operations, high altitude research, and the photophysics laboratory. In addition to ARC, in June of 1997, SIMCO began operating and managing the metrology an calibration facility at the NASA Marshal Space Flight Center located in Huntsville, Alabama. SIMCO has previously provided metrology services for NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, McClellan Air Force Base, and Vandenberg Air Force Base. For many years, SIMCO has also provided technical support personnel at Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore, California.
