Comprehensive device integrates advanced communication protocols and edge computing for enhanced productivity and security, ensuring safe data export from machines to factory networks.

Quality assurance (QA) meets artificial intelligence (AI). How can they coexist safely? Integrating AI into QA brings opportunities and risks, especially in safety-critical environments. Balancing rigorous standards and human oversight is crucial.

Optical Gaging Products (OGP®) announced the next evolution of SmartScope® 3D Multisensor Metrology systems: SmartScope M-Series.

In today’s industrial landscape, IO-Link enables seamless data exchange for efficient operations.

Beleaguered Boeing Starliner's return to Earth — without the astronauts —is scheduled for tomorrow, Friday, September 5th.

Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) play a crucial role in verifying the dimensions of manufactured parts with precision control. CMM controllers are central to coordinating movements and processing data, driving technological advancements in the metrology industry.

Phenna Group has appointed Jon Harrison as the Group Head of Corporate Development.

In modern manufacturing, it's crucial to validate parts immediately after manufacturing or assembly and detect defects before further processing. Automation in manufacturing has outpaced inspection processes, creating a challenge and opportunity for the metrology industry.

Statistical Process Control (SPC) is evolving to not just detect defects, but also to predict and prevent issues. Modern factories use more sensors and collect more data, allowing SPC to analyze real-time patterns and forecast potential issues.

Traditional manufacturing often results in waste of materials and energy due to imprecise measurements. 3D measurement technology enables precise measurement, early issue detection, and process adjustments, reducing waste and costs.
