2014 Measurement & Inspection Outlook

As metrology becomes more sophisticated, shops continually try to measure things faster, do more things on the production floor and less in the lab. This need for speed is increasing opportunities for optical measurement technology across a broad spectrum of market sectors and applications.

As The World Turns

A process-controlled hard turning cell in this Texas machine shop deploys programmable gages for measuring and sorting mud-motor bearings – and the cell pays for itself in 18 days.

Before Investing in Quality Management Solutions, Know Thyself

Every shop should develop a high-level understanding of their existing quality resources so they can begin creating flow charts for each quality process that, in turn, will help them understand not only a breakdown of what takes place within a specific process, but also the resources allocated to each step along with any potential gaps that may exist. 

Flexible System pushes the Boundaries of 3D Scanning

The LMI Technologies HDI R3x Advance Scanner from GoMeasure3D performs at 0.88 seconds/scan with a resolution up to 2.6 million points (5.2 million polygons) and accuracy up to 50 microns (0.002 in). It can be changed by placing the cameras in different preset slots or by replacing them with interchangeable camera lenses to fit precise needs.
