OverviewFossCalibrator™ and FossCalibrator™ Pro is a cloud-based calibration development software that lets laboratories and instrument managers create, validate and deploy prediction models to analytical instruments. The platform provides remote instrument surveillance and model lifecycle management to help maintain measurement consistency across sites and instruments.
Key features- Guided workflows to develop and improve prediction models with recommended settings and support for parallel calculations.
- Model validation and side-by-side performance comparison for objective evaluation.
- Direct upload of validated models to instruments via FossManager™ for centralized deployment.
- Automated report generation for traceability, documentation and audit support.
- Intuitive interface suitable for routine users and calibration experts.
Capabilities- Three-step workflow to create, validate and publish calibration models.
- Automatic report writer producing documentation for internal records and external audits.
- Integrated, task-oriented guidance to assist users through each stage of the calibration workflow.
- Support for multiple simultaneous calculations and automated model updates for iterative development.
- Advanced non-linear algorithms available in FossCalibrator™ Pro, including LOCAL algorithms and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), to handle large and complex datasets.
